So i decided to do another aquarium. This time no so big. Last time was a 150 gallon. This is a 32 gallon and of course i went overboard again and had to plant it and inject C02.

This is the day i put the plants in

Nicely planted.
Hobbyist here too but haven't had a tank up in quite some time.

Very nice! I've always said when keeping a saltwater reef aquarium gets too easy I'l try freshwater planted again... Wink

I've gotten kinda tired of it at this point but since I built it into the house I'm kind of stuck with it... 500 gallon total volume system 300 gallon in wall main tank with a dedicated fish room.

I don't have hobbies... I have obsessions. Wink

That's what my wife says about me. I really wanted a 100 gallon cube with a 50 gallon sump but that got shot down. Shefound this 32 gallon bio cube and said she liked it. So I bought it and transformed it into a planted community tank. Right now all I have in in is 3 bolivian rams and 2 bristlenose plecos. My C02 regulator took a crap yesterday so I have a new one on order, should be here tomorrow. Also had to trim a few plants tonight and replanted the trimmings. It's kind of nice having a small tank. I did a 150 gallon reef tank several years ago then kids happened.

 cooldude Nice looking set up Gavin, if I was a fish that would be a nice tank to enjoy.  Roll Eyes

Serk, good gosh  Shocked yes can you say " obsession" I'm sure they are both an elite set up with the Saltwater category. Lots of work and expense but can truly be an Awesome Habbit. Always loved them. coolsmiley
