Trying to post pictures....
These are pictures of the 30G tank after a total overhaul,
and the receipt of the 30G "Easy Care" Package from
Arizona Gardens. I had more plants than I knew what to
do with and even had to throw some away, simply no room in
the tank for them.

lol Well Frank, I see you finally got your pics to enlarge!

Beautiful tank Frank! You're going to be trimming pretty soon, already!
It makes me want to set up a tank just for plants!

Fantastic photos Frank I like the size not a problem at all. As you know I like well planted tanks once established corectly they seem to look after them selves What was the problem re posting.

Have a look in [link=My Profile] http://www.fishprofiles.com/forums/member.aspx?id=1935[/link] for my tank info

Look here for my
Betta 11Gal Desktop & Placidity 5ft Community Tank Photos

Hi Guys,
I'll try resizing the pictures on the next "shoot" to
make them clearer. There is a series of posts in the
General Freshwater forum where I discussed the ordering
process, what I got, and how much it cost me.
Here is the list of plants that you see:

I got:
6 - Japanese Ferns
2 - large bunches of Ambulia
15 - Dwarf Onion (15 sets of three each)
15 - Tall Sag
15 - Crypt Walkeri
4 - Java Fern
3 - Dwarf Lilly Plants
3 - Blood Stargrass
4 - bunches of Rotala Lardin
2 - bunches of Anacharis
2 - medium Ozelot Swords

Since my wife had a Drs Apt that we had to leave for at
3, I sorta just "stuffed" them here and there in the tank
with some semblence of order. When we got back, I took
this picture. I think I'm going to allow the plants a
few weeks to settle in, and then start to do something with
the layout.

It is the 3 Dwarf Lillies that are the striking plants in
the middle of the tank. I just shoved the individual
"ball" of each plant into the gravel, root side down, and
within three weeks, these have gone from one or two roots
and "A" sprout on each ball into these plants. As they
send up a leaf toward the surface, I snip it off. This
way I hope to maintian their present appearance.

Frank
