Vpier Posted January 17, 2016 Report Share Posted January 17, 2016 Nice tank. Do you use CO2? What is the name of the large purple plant? Louie 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mayphly Posted January 17, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2016 Nice tank. Do you use CO2? What is the name of the large purple plant? Thanks! I still use co2 in this tank. However, I only keep neos in it now. The plant I think your reffering to is ludwigia "mini super red". Louie 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jadenlea Posted January 19, 2016 Report Share Posted January 19, 2016 So beautiful . Does the unpleasant plant need co2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mayphly Posted January 19, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2016 Thanks for all the compliments! This tank has undergone several transformations in the last several years. The Amazonia soil is about 3 years old and still buffers the water to a PH of 7.0. It houses my blue diamonds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mayphly Posted January 19, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2016 So beautiful . Does the unpleasant plant need co2im not sure which "unpleasant" plant were you referring too. Lol!! If your talking about the red ludwigia it doesn't require co2 to grow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soothing Shrimp Posted January 19, 2016 Report Share Posted January 19, 2016 OMG How did autocorrect get unpleasant from "purple" I get some surprising stuff from my auto-correct, too!

mayphly Posted January 19, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 19, 2016 Looks beautiful, must of been one of your first shrimp tanks? lol! It was actually my second shrimp tank (planted tank converted to shrimp) and first attempt at crs. I failed there! I started with cherry shrimp back in 2010. They started breeding out of control just using plain tap water. That's when I became fascinated with shrimp. I'll have to find a pic of that tank. It had flourescent gravel and a giant goldfish in it. Here's the old thread for my 12g when I started it http://www.plantedtank.net/forums/12-tank-journals/187147-mayphlys-12-gallon-rimlesstank.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
svetilda Posted January 19, 2016 Report Share Posted January 19, 2016 You had shrimp with a goldfish?! How did you do that? I'm afraid to add anything to my goldfish tank because my ryukin will eat anything and everything! Louie 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
