Acclimating new lighting...?

Posted on January 17, 2013 at 12:09am 0 Comments

Hi all,

So a few weeks ago I "upgraded" my tank light from a single 32W T8 bulb to a four bulb fixture adding to a total of 128 W. it's a 55 gallon tank. The sudden change in lighting caused an algae bloom and I honestly haven't seen great improvements in my plants due to the lighting. I've been converted to dirt for over a month by the way. So I have great substrate and nutrients.



Anyway, I think I'm going to go back to my old light. A single T8 bulb. I think it'll be plenty… Continue

Anyone ever kept broad leaf sagittaria? Or Brazillian pennywort?

Posted on January 12, 2013 at 8:03pm 1 Comment

Hello, today I went out to find some more plants for my dirted tank. I bought some broad leaf sag and a brazillian pennywort.
I have some dwarf sag in my tank now. Is the broad leaf much different beside leaf shape and color?
Also any info on pennywort would be cool. I planted it in the mid ground of my tank in front of a vertical piece of driftwood. Anyone ever kept this plant before have any info on it?
Thanks all!

I recently updated my lighting, I had only 32 watts on my 55 gallon. Less than 1 watt per gallon. The bulb was a florasun bulb 6500 K.

Now I have 128 watts over the tank and has been for roughly a week. And of course the lighting… Continue

Hey everyone! I just wanna tell y'all about a really awesome fish that I've come to love!

Dun dun dun....the clown barb! Puntius everetti

Also known as Everett's barb (which is super awesome since that's my last name!):D

Active, schooling barb that is colored much like tiger barbs. Instead of striped clown barbs more so have spots! They also have the brightest iridescent shine under the right light. Gold and green colors shine off their peachy color.

Oddly they are shaped… Continue
