A little about myself. I have had aquariums since 1988. I started off with a freshwater tank that my mom had, and gradually over time went to saltwater. Stayed there for quite a few years and then went to a reef tank. Then I switched back just last December to try my hand at planted tanks.
Here they are. Any questions are welcome.
90 gallon reef, setup for 8 years. 2 250 watt halide canopy with 2 110 Watt VHO's.
Home made filtration with built in Fuge and stand.
Here's my 125 FOWLR tank, was waiting on the cycle.
I then had one of my ballast go out on my 90 and since I lost my job and couldnt replace it, I went Fresh with it. I sold off all the corals and fish, and used that for my transformation. The rock was all free. I soent $30 on the red flint gravel.
Stages of the 90 gallon from reef to freshwater.
Right after I cleaned it out.
Put some fake plants in so it didnt look so empty as I waited for my real ones. This pis I still had the halides up.
The final result after The halides were removed and the real plants planted, the tank cycled and fish added.
My first High tech planted tank. 30 Hex.
My 125 in the stages of planting.
