| Another update on my 55gal Things have had a little more time to grow. I just can't tell everybody enough times if you don't have a UV sterilizer go get one they are the greatest.
Specs.
55gal
Filter: Emperor 400, DOUBLEHELIX ULTRAVIOLET STERILIZER- 9 WATT with 126gph power head.
Lighting: two 48" 40watt Gro Lux & two 48" 40watt 6,500K.
Substrate: 2 1/2" of medium sand blasting sand.
Temp: 76
Plant's: Swords, 2 banana plants, aponogetons, hygro & a couple other one I dont remember names of.
Fishes: Mollies, Swordtails, Platies, 2 Black skirt Tetras, & 1 Algae Eater 2 Aussy Rainbows. (lots of mollies & swordtails).
Decor: Driftwood and river rock
Thats about it.
There will be lots more plants added soon now that the green water is gone.
All plant food, water conditioners, salt, & buffers are all Sea Chem products. Sea Chem is the best stuff ever!
Hope you like my tank! |
