Great tank, that driftwood is awesome! What's the stock list? I see at least four different species of sunnies in there.

Thanks! There is a Warmouth, GreenSunfish, Eastern Spotted sunfish, Red breasted sunfish and a Florida Gar. Also a Common pleco. 6 fish total. They all have there own territory that they stay in but will venture around.
 
Great fish and tank.....just the algae covered branch itself is awesome.How did you pull that off?

I went snorkeling at a spring and saw this sitting at the bottom...I had to have it! I was afraid the algae wouldnt survive but its been in the tank almost 6 months now. I had to trim a few branchs but it was exactly what i was looking for.
 
Great find and save.I probably would have been thinking along the same lines but I don't provide enough lighting in my tanks for plant growth.
 
I did run two different light setups but now i just have one, A cheap marineland double bright LED..
 
A great healthy and nice looking tank. Definitely a tank of the month candidate.

The algea is actually growing out of the wood not just sitting on the surface. Its very established.
