My Tanks 1st Anniversary Date

[blaggari79]

Thought I'll post couple of pics of my tank as it is celebrating its first anniversary. It is in need of tidying up and a bit of replanting. I have to admit that I am not a photographer

Nice tank and fish, I've always liked trigons. Great pics from a phone too.

Plant on far right is the non-aquatic Dracaena sanderiana though, may want to replace it .

Thanks for all the comments. I was afraid that I over stocked it. It has been with same fish for over 6 months and I do check the water roughly once a month and levels remain stable. No casualties in past 10 months.

Haha.. I'll give it a go.. Any ideas what could replace it?

 

[blaggari79]

Had a couple to clear my mind over the Christmas and thought my tank could do with a refurb as it is just over a year old. So go replaced a lot of plants. Increased co2 input and started to replace the substrate from coarse gravel to sand. at least for the areas I'll leave clear.

Left dracena on the right where it was and got another one from my lfs for free and is on my windowsill.. just to see which will survive longer

Any comments would be appreciated. As I do want to make this to look good. The tank will move back to the corner and there will be natural drywood/leaf/moss/stone background on bothsides sides.
