lighting is stock -36watt 10k pc bulb ( i dont even run the second light )

i dose seachem flourish once like every 3 days and change water once ever 2 weeks ..


i like the looks of a forest and fish swimming thru the leaves and plants :) so i let the grow tall clip and plant them again ..


The main technique ( which i recently understood ) is biocubes are closed systems so even if it was only one 36 watt bulb over 30 gallon tank it still is super bright for the plants to grow
 
Beautiful tank man! Been itching to do a planted tank for some time myself. You have some really nice fw fish in there too!
 
Awesome - I know nothing about FW tanks, but those fish are on my list now for whenever I end setting up a planted tank!
