I'm gonna add live plants but the light it has isnt good enough for most plants. I have some java moss and java ferns comming to me in the mail right now and also added a few of the plant bulbs you can buy at petsmart. They are just starting to sprout after about a week in there. Ill grab a pic of them today. I found a nice 24" t5 setup for $100 so maybe Ill get some cash from christmas to buy it. Id also like to get the paintball c02 setup to help the plants grow.
