    Default I think I have found my home!

    Hello, everyone
    I have recently gotten into freshwater planted aquariums (about 2 months) and been on the forum planted tank and just recently realized this amazing BC forum. This forum is defiantly where I belong with my fellow Canadians

    Heres my first tank

    I have a marineland 10 gallon halfmoon
    filter: marineland bio filter 100
    heater: stock (tetra 50wat submersible)
    light: stock tetra Led 16 wat i believe
    swivel desk lamp 13wat fluorescent light
    ikea led strip lights to create a moonlight
    Hardscape
    - Malaysian driftwood
    - river rock
    substrate
    -smooth silica sand
    - underneath some ugly blue gravel
    plants:
    java fern
    java moss
    anubias
    fish:
    (too date)
    1 balloon molly
    4 guppy
    3 cory catfish
    1 crowntail betta
    1 hillstream loach
    3 neon tetra
    1 oto cat
    ( SO MANY FISH :O )

    Fertz: dosing searchem flourish once a week


    My tank has gone through many changes since i first got it, and its only been a MONTH!

    heres when i first started (July 17th 2011)
    fish: guppy and cory catfish (later on 6 neon tetra but 3 of then died)

    July 31 (guessing)
    got balloon moly for cheap, malaysian driftwood,java moss and java ferns
    still had that ugly blue gravel with river rocks


    (Aug 9)
    added sand and DIY CO2

    (Aug 14, 2011)
    added hillstream loach




    (aug 23)



    and a picture of my hilarious dog



    Sorry for the long post but I also bought a cheap 10 gallon tank on craiglist which im thinking of getting 2 dwarf cichilids like rams, panda or kribs and 6 or 7 schooling fish and a oto for alge.
