BEAUTIFUL! what kind of light you running on this thing? Any Co2 injection? You didnt happen to of bought that from a girl did you??

I had a planted 46 bow front I sold to a girl somewhere in the south about 3-4 years ago. I really want to get back into planted tanks.

Thanks.

6x39w t5ho 36" 6500K 10 hrs a day.
Flourite substrate
Flourish supplements 2xs a week
API CO2 Booster every other day @ half the recommended ammount.
Air stone @ night when the lights are off.<- really made a difference in plant growth.

Bought the tank from a guy in north GA.

Nice, another question, do you have any problems with beard algae? Thats the main thing I hated about my planted tanks, after a few months, it would cove a bunch of the leaves in the tank.

I had a problem with Diatom "Brown Algae" for awhile.
Added some ramshorn snails and they took care of it till the plants could
get large enough to out compete it for the nutrients.
