With regards to the plants that I have planted around the pool. I started out with quick a few on the list of photos that were recently shown. For some reason or another alot of them died. I live in a tropical climate but in Santa Ana in the summer time it might not rain for 3 months straight. In January, February, March, the hot summer winds really dry things out. So even if I could water every day the leaves get pretty ripped up. The Furrier heliconia's didn't seem to do too well. I brought most of these heliconia's from Limon, on the caribbean side of the country. It's always humid there.
Tomorrow I'm going to take the underwater light out because I think that I might have some leakage there. I'm being patient with the fish until I get this thing leak free.
