    Yay! The pleco babies are out of their log roaming around. (Yolk Sacs gone)
    <--Just gave them a french cut green bean

    The cory fry are doing great too & believe it or not have white bodies with a peppering (strange)

    LoL You were right about that banana plant, it looks like lilly pads. That red indian sword looks really nice. I don't think I've ever seen one of those before.

    it took forever for it to grow a runner...and at the end of it (red indian sword) is a flower bud.

    And told ya so about the nana plants. (lilly pad)

    glad to hear its doing well. You can see the original stems they came from above. It will give you an idea of what you can expect coloration wise.
    (would love to see a photo to see if yours are more red than mine)

    ok, was wondering if your 10k bulbs woulda made any difference in the coloration (your still running those right?)

    Re: My 90 gallon planted

    ps. The banana plants are soon to be on their way out>>just clipped all the lillypad like leaves since they were taking all the light.

    I'd like to get some more crypts (bronze/red and green wendtiis) to fill it in a bit heavier since the corydoras' love that area!

    And I'd like to place something else where the ban. plants are.

    You have a lot more crypt than I thought you did.

    How about replacing the banana plant with a tiger lotus ?

    Re: My 90 gallon planted

    I thought about that...but they get HUGE! Hence>>what I transferred the 1 to the 10g.

    I have another one sprouting in the 90g ((by the white cave to the right))...it's in front of it to the left hidden a bit.

    Re: My 90 gallon planted

    I'd like to fill the entire ground in with the wendtii since most of the inhabitants love hiding under the leaves of it. Anyone got wendtii? Lol!

    Re: My 90 gallon planted

    thank you buzz.

    Just finished swiping the tiger lilly from the 10g and putting it in here...and removing the banan. plants and transferring them to the 10g along with a few red/green/bronze crypts.
