My 100 gallon planted tank.

 

Today, my 100 gallon plant is the only tank I do take care of, as I have disassembled the others.  I use only tap water and relatively this is a "low light" tank. It has two pressurized CO2 cylinders and CO2 dissolves into that tank by two different diffusers.                                

Established January 2003.
