Although there's a sticky above, it hasn't been active in quite some time. I thought this would be a great thread to share pictures of your planted tanks (past and present). I'd love to see some pictures of everyone's planted aquariums!

Feel free to provide tech details, or just keep it simple (i.e. size, age of tank, etc.).

I'll start!

55G "non-Co2/low tech" planted tank from 2013. Although I no longer have it, it was a lot of fun. Kept easy plants like Amazon swords, Water Wisteria, Aponogetons, etc. It was a great low-maintenance set up that required very little ferts, testing, worry, etc.

20G "High tech" set up. Once I dialed in and balanced the three major elements, things really took off. This tank holds a variety of different plant species (some easy, some challenging). I've found that I'm constantly making adjustments (ferts, Co2, trimming, aquascaping, etc) in order to maintain the overall health of the tank. Although very rewarding, it is also a lot of work.
