Hey!
I am going to be planting some small tanks, between 2.5 gallons and 5 gallons, so I'd love to see some of your guys small planted tanks to get some inspiration :-D
I think they both look very nice ! Got my first plants today so excited, will post pics when I plant them and they fill out some. I have 3 small Marimo Moss balls they are doing good they are still very green and I love them in the tank.
I hope it's ok to ask in this thread- when you have tanks like these, do you still have to take everything out to do 100% water changes? That seems like it would be a big mess with all the plants and sand or gravel .. etc. Or do you not need to do 100% water changes?
OMG These are beautiful! Real plants have such a different look to them than fake ones. I seriously need to learn to be better at keeping plants alive lol.
All you need is a tank with an ammonia source and a very hardy plant species. Some plants you can ignore and they will grow rampantly. Just do your research and you'll discover how easy some plants are to care for.
Not much of an inspiration. just my temporary tank holding a rescue waiting to be moved into a 10g. Lots of plants, substrate from the local creek, moss from the pond.
Aokashi, your little tanks are always so peaceful to stare at, lol.
Love those banana lilies. Mine grew - no kidding - about four, maybe five solid inches of leaf stalk today, and the leaf is at the top of the tank... crazy plants! So pretty though.
Oooh I love them when they turn into lily pads. but watch out if they reach the top the new leaves will always grow that high. if you want you can snip off a long leaf (with the stalk(and leave it floating around. it will grow a new banana lily
I finally did a planted tank :-D:-D:-D:-D It's a 3 gallon, Tetra tank. Unfortunately the cord to the light didn't come with the tank, which is why it was so cheap. So for now I am using a very small LED light :-? Really hoping that, plus the sunlight from my window will keep the plants alive until I can find a cord!
Ill be converting my 5.5 gal to a planted..ill have java moss, water sprite and parrots feather...i cant wait to do it! I just need a day off to do it!
Everyones tanks look so great!
