Allison Amaya Posted July 16, 2020 Share Posted July 16, 2020 Hi everyone! I'm in the DFW area and have been keeping fish for about 3 years now, but really just got into aquariums in the past 7 months or so thanks to Cory! I've currently got a 40breeder with mollys, platys, danios, and amanos, a 45 with a pleco (who is getting a bigger home soon, don't worry!) and some neons, a 10 with all of the molly and platy babies that I could catch, and a 7.5g with a cute lil' female betta and some harlequin rasboras. Looking forward to learning and starting some new projects inspired by this forum 😀 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Cory Posted July 17, 2020 Administrators Share Posted July 17, 2020 I like the lava rock substrate in the first tank. I've seen some others do it and I've always been intrigued to try it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allison Amaya Posted July 17, 2020 Author Share Posted July 17, 2020 Thank you!! It was impromptu... I convinced my husband to let me this tank up because I told him I already had everything for it so it wouldn't cost anything lol. So out into my backyard I went! 🙃 I have some eco complete/gravel mix in the back for the jungle val. So far, I'm mostly liking it but it is kind of difficult to clean under/around them.

Allison Amaya Posted January 18, 2023 Author Share Posted January 18, 2023 Can't believe I haven't spent more time on the forum these past two years. Just updating this post with new pictures of my tanks, mostly for myself. My 40 breeder, which can be viewed from 3 sides! This is my only high-tech setup. The red plants and my tiger lotus are just there to grow out for a bit... My tall 45 by the window, complete with no background (Cory's favorite) and lava rock/crushed coral substrate. My bedroom 20 long with a whole mess of plants My husband's 6 gallon cube with Rage, the red betta. And finally, the other 20 long - the "galaxy tank" 3 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
