While it’s winter and we are stuck indoors, thought it might be fun to post about our aquarium. We have a well established 55 gallon tall tank. We have a biological under gravel filter. We have been starting to learn about a planted aquarium but we don’t have CO2 or proper soil I don’t think and haven’t been super successful yet.
We did get a snail outbreak which prompted us to buy a YoYo Loach. We have a male and female rainbowfish as our tank centerpieces and several groups of tetras. We also have a big Zebra Nerite snail and a bristle nose plecostamus.
Here’s some pics!
