Before and After

 Here is my set up as it originally looked. It's pretty basic obviously & needed to be cleaned. The brown stuff on the glass is algae build up.

 I only have three fish in the tank so far: An angel and two black mollies. I also have a piece of driftwood and two plants - both anubias (nana's). My light is a Coralife 96 watt w/ 4 tubes which gives the plants plenty of light.

 The substrate is your average garden variety gravel, nothing special.

Pretty sad and boring!

Welcome!

Welcome to the Fish Tank Follies, where you can read about my trials & tribulations as I try to maintain a freshwater planted aquarium without killing all the occupants!

I am new to this hobby so I'm still learning and figuring things out. I have a 25 gallon tall tank that will be the subject of my experiments. I welcome any and all comments, suggestions, feedback and ideas.

Thanks for stopping by!
