9/18/08

I have had this tank for over a year. It has been moved and redone several times. It was resealed in August. This tank was my first ever planted tank. It was also the first tank I have owned since I was a younger. The following images span almost an entire year and show how a tank can change over longer periods.

20 Gallon: December 18, 2008
This is the tank as it looked prior to moving away for 4 months.
This tank had no CO2 injection.
Fish included Tetras, a Gourami, BN plecos and ghost shrimp



20 Gallon: June 05, 2008
The tank was moved and changed some before I left.
This picture was taken about a month after I arrive home.
The tank really took a beating while I was away.
Most of the plants seen in the picture above died.
Some plants I had to manually remove.
Later in June I finally had a some free time to reseal.
After resealing I set the tank up again in August.


20 Gallon: August 10, 2008
I resealed the tank sprayed the back and acquired some rocks.



20 Gallon: September 11, 2008
The tank has been filled.
There are three plant types:

Made a custom canopy.
Installed a glass lid.
