Default phOOey's GT tank

This is my one and only tank at the moment, it used to house a lone salvini, but since he died its become the home of 1 green terror, 12 columbian tetras and an albino bristlenose pleco. Its around 55g, its currently planted, but as the GT grows im not sure how long thats gonna last... same goes for the tetras.

its very low tech, about 1.5 wpg, no c02. Plant growth is fairly slow but steady, i only really fertilise with flourish or flourish excel when the plants look like they need it no fancy test kits for me

Full tank shot...



The GT



One of the columbian tetras



With the moonlights... looks much less grainy in real life



all comments welcome

awesome looking tank. i love green terrors. my old roommate had a 125 gallon tank with 2 green terrors and 2 red terrors with some tetras that look an awful lot like yours. does the gt uproot the plants at all?
