    Finally tried to get a couple of pictures .. all of the plants you see are 1-4 weeks in the tank. Hoping the wisteria in the left corner will take off and fill the empty space in that corner.

    Thanks!

    Yeah, mismatched driftwood is what you get when you can't find any locally, and take the luck of the draw with an online store :) I ordered a medium and a small piece, and got 2 larges - so I guess I can't complain too much. Hopefully when the wisteria grows in it won't look so goofy. :D

    Awe, being the kids picked it how could you hide it? I know my lil nephew gets the biggest kick out of tellin' his mom that HE setup the tank..and he's 9 :) And of course him setting up the tank has to do with him picking a few fish and a few plants! :p

    wow, lots of controversy over my funky blue gravel ... I love it! ;)

    BTW, my youngest has been nagging me for some time for one of those sunken battleships, I may have to get one for the playroom tank ;)
