My 4 Setups

Stunning tanks! Could you tell me a little more about your 225? Filtration, type of plants, etc?

Thank you Ryan.

I run 2 FX5/6's and a Rena XP-L. 50% water changes weekly. Water is tap with pH of 6.8 and 83 degrees F.

The plants in the water ar anubias. Outside the water is pothos, Spathyphyllum (peace lilies), and spider plant. Literally garden variety indoor plants from the local garden store. Very easy plants for a Riparium.

What substrate is that? Are the "land" plants being grown right on top of the driftwood or in some sort of basket?

The substrate is mostly PFS with some fine gravel mixed in to give it texture. The plants are on top of the wood. No baskets.

The roots are on the water and the wood was placed to create shelves to plant on.
