| I'm back and I got 2 albino cory's and 2 black spotted ones, they're cute as can be swimming around in the tank. I've never had em before and I think I made a good decision.
I also got the sand for my 10g, its starting to look awesome. I wish I woulda done it with the 55g to start with (maybe I'll trade out the small pebbles for the sand, lol) |

| Thanks, the 10g has its media being cycled in the 55g, and the 55g is going through some changes as I'm trying to get the aquascaping right. The big piece in the middle i got by accident, I ordered a small $5 piece and they sent me a $22 one without charging me for it  I dont think it matches my idea for the tank  |

| Thanks, I'm adding the plants slowly starting from the right working my way left, hence all the green on the right side
I plan to have it nice and full, not sure if i'm going to have to go with a CO2 system, my brother says i should but what does he know, he's only been keeping fish for 10yrs with a 220gal tank, lol |
