Hi everyone. Sorry for the lack of updates but I have been busy at work finishing off our season and now I will have more time due to being laid off. I am a seasonal worker. I've been doing it the last 5 years so I am used to it. Back to the tank. The fish are still growing and I have (against most opinions) added a substrate and some low light plants. The plants that I have added have been in a 10 gallon tank for 4 months with no fish and were surviving so I decided to dress up my tank with these to help with the algae problem. So far it has been working out and the fish love swimming by them. A couple of them will move to this area when the lights go out and stay there until morning. The 125 will become my show tank with these 6 fish as the centerpiece. Right now a 1/3 of the tank is lightly planted but eventually I will plant more throughout the entire tank. I still vacuum the tank out daily and do partial water changes. The rest of the plants that I will add will be quarantined in the 10 gallon tank. I will be posting some pictures later on today when my battery is charged on the camera. I was able to get 1 picture but more will follow.
