55 gallons planted tank (mostly live plants and fish) - Here is a full view of our aquarium as of June. As you can see, the moss has created a nice carpet in front of the rock cave and developed nicely on the driftwood. Also, the background plants have taken off nicely. Let us know what you think.
corals inverts - atyopsis moluccensis - bamboo shrimp stocking in 55 gallons tank - Our Bamboo Shrimp. He hides in our bubbler and comes out at night. Awesome little critter! Bad News! This poor guy molted the other day and somebody picked on him in his fragile state. He is no more.
