I redid my 8 gallon after I moved my betta and cories to their new 4 gal. After days of thinking and saving, I decided to try my second attempt at a planted tank but this time smaller.

After a few times of visits to 3-4 different LFS, I present you my new 8 gal freshwater planted tank. Note that I used normal white gravel instead of those advanced high class expensive gravel or substrate. I didn't want to spend so much like how I did for my 55g and failed. I actually set it up a few days ago and the plants are taking their shape and looking good. But I have yet to set up my DIY Co2 diffuser, hope to be able to get it done in a few days after the silicone glue cures.

Credits: I wanna take this chance to thank those members who have helped me out, given me advice, and encouraged me to continue on with this planted tank when I nearly wanted to give up. I wouldn't have managed to do it as nice as this without you guys

haha I have lil' Juvie cardinals in there if you can enlarge the photos. They're all currently less than half an inch so I brought home 10. I'll be getting 10 more in 2 weeks.

I still have more plants to add once I get my co2 diffuser running.

looks really nice! I love the driftwood!

Thanks Tony. Yeah, I actually had a bit of a hard time deciding what size driftwood I had to get. Because I forgot to take measurement of the tank before going out to buy and measure the driftwood. So I just made a lucky pick and it actually fit the tank! haha
