tanks update

[charlie]

This summer both of my planted tanks really suffered from lack of maintenance due to several factors, as a result i lost a few plants & is still battling some nagging algae issues,but the tanks are on the upswing.
Many thanks to the members who kindly donated some plants to help replenish the ones i lost, there are still a couple more i want to replace.
Here are a couple of pics of  the tanks as they are now .

The Tanks still look amazing Charlie.  The 59g looks like an under water jungle.

sweet setup, which plants are those to the lower left in clumps of 4-5 ? i think those were the ones from the tropica order you did a while back....

[fischkopp]

Hehe, that piece of wood really makes a big difference. Good pick!

[charlie]

Thanks guy`s.will update when the plants grow in some.

pminister - the plant is Lobelia cardinalis, it did not come from the Tropica order.

Yeah i was never one for too much driftwood,but i think i`m now a convert 
Jeff i got it from Big Al`s East

Awesome looking tank Charlie.  Love the driftwood/dutch style combo.  That's a nice centrepiece of wood.
