Welcome. Even though I'm pretty new around here too.
I'd like to see pics of your planted tanks. I love how they look too, but I'm not brave enough to try it myself. Plus, my cichlids would probably tear them up, so that's another reason for a no go. :|
i will definately post pics of my planted tank... the 5 gal is the 1 im really concentraiting on though... im getting ready to put some driftwood in there.. so after i get the driftwood and all of that i will post pics...
