Kitty's 40G Breeder Low Tech

[Kittysnax]

I decided to upgrade my 20G Long to a 40G Breeder once I discovered that I reallllly like South American and Native Fish swimming amongst my jungle of a 20G.

What happened to your 20 gallon?

[davemonkey]

Very nice. Do you have any plans for foreground cover?

[Kittysnax]

Oh I Kept the 20 running, just as a shrimp breeding tank with a crap ton of moss and such LOL

edit: I was thinking of just keeping crypts as the foreground, not sure yet though.

Most crypts make better background plants than foreground plants.

I know. im just not sure what I am going to do with it right now. My main goal was to get it running and I accomplished that...now I just need to find another job and then I can get back to work on this....I really hate the wood I have in it right now, as Id really like to have a stump that could fit in this tank. Id also like to hook up CO2 as well. Time and money are my main factors now :<
