I want to share my second planted tank with all of you. It was an old 24g kindly donated by some great friends. I've never seen a tank with these dimensions before but it was perfect for my Ikea stand.
I took off the trim, filed the edges and spray painted the background black. Some plants were grown from cuttings from my 10g office tank. Pics were taken today at 2 months. Again, thanks for all the info and advice. It takes a village.
