    It is "basically" an oddball shape, buy its very well aquascaped. You always give me great ideas for my future tank. Although I'm not a huge guppy fan, I think some blue dragon guppies would look amazing in there with those pops of red and pink plants. I love it 😀

      Thank you, FRF! I'm not a big fan of guppies either but I know they would make a good fit here, esp smaller strains that aren't too hyper.

    I like the idea of 2 different red plants together. It gives 2 different textures in 1 colour. Very nice.

      That was a happy accident but I am going with it for very reason you cite!

    Plants are looking good! Will be interested in updates for this tank. I purchased a 20 gal high. Same shape as yours. I had a lot of difficulty keeping clean because of the height of the tank. I ended up taking down and I don't use it. I have learned a lot since then and probably should have used a canister filter. I would have had to modify hoses because even those aren't long enough to get all the way down to bottom. The pink plant is gorgeous. Good luck and keep us posted.

      The size definitely has challenges. Let’s see if I’m up for them! Big reason I chose it was due to limited horizontal space on the rack.

    Wow, using pennywort as a floating plant is a genius move. I love this tank. I'm using the same twin star light for my upcoming UNS 25S shallow project

      Hi there. I do not use Ro water on any of my tanks. I use an all in one fert once a week but I believe way more in good lights and Co2.
