A couple of new pics taken 3 days apart. Almost everything is doing well. The Cabomba and new Banana plant are growing the fastest. Banana plant has shot a stem to the surface within about 2 days and its leaves have grown a lot over a few days. Cabomba has to be trimmed weekly and was trimmed before the 2nd picture. Tiger Lotus has grown nice new leaves as the original leaves were in bad shape to begin with.
The red plant on the left (no ID) isn't doing well though. I'm not even sure if its a true aquatic plant. I've only been turning on my lights 5 out of 7 days so maybe that contributed to its condition. June 22  June 25  Last edited by Samw; 06-27-2007 at 05:42 AM.

Hi Tony. Its the one with the big round leaves in the bottom left corner. Here's a webpage about the banana plant:
http://www.aqualandpetsplus.com/Plant,%20Banana.htm In less than a week, it has shot up a stem to the surface of the tank (not shown in these outdated pics). It is like a mini-water lily. Eventually, some stems will have white flowers at the water surface from pictures I've seen. Last edited by Samw; 06-27-2007 at 05:32 AM.

It looks great--I really like it!
Question--do you add CO2? And did you use any special sort of substrate for planted tanks?

Thanks. No, I'm not dosing CO2. Substrate is Florabase.
