Just a few picks of my planted cichlid ans silver dollar tank. I'm probably done adding plants and hardscape though I will reposition things once my newest driftwood doesn't need rocks to hold it down.

Tank : 72x30x25
Lights: 48" sat+ & (2) 36"sat+
Ferts: seachem root tabs

The fish is a paraneetroplus melanurus. My silver dollars couldnt care less about the plant, my severum and melanrus love duckweed and mosses but haven't bothered these plants in the 11 months I've had them together.
