Photo #6 - I'm A Newb To The Freshwater Plant Aquarium ...

8 gallons planted tank (mostly live plants and fish) - I'm a newb to the freshwater plant aquarium scene. I've taken care of salt and fresh water fish, but I've never done plants. I knew this would happen... I love my 8 gallon, but now i want a bigger tank haha!

8 gallons freshwater fish tank (mostly fish and non-living decorations) - An older pic. I now use black flourite gravel. This was before I had the blackbeard algae infestation.

Description: 55 gallon hexagon - Planted (crypts-undulata and tropica, limnophilia, japonica, hydrophilia, various anubias)community tank with Neon Tetras. 8 Gallon BioCube - Planted with common crypts, japonica, hydros, and rotalas. 10 Gallon Plant hospital tank. Yes, for some of my dying plants. Using a Stratum substrate.

Advice: Salt or fresh water, they're both two worlds I enjoy doing. The only difference is PRICE! No need to discriminate, please do the same. As my coworker who likes to quote his little 20g saltwater tank as the "Mercedes of the aquarium world" ...Three expensive and dead fish later, he's selling his tank! lol
