, as well as a common pleco in a 29 gallon , I was just starting and didn't know any better.So I got home put all my fish in and my beautiful plant (I think its some type of sword, Amazon red sword I think) and it looked fine. Than all my fish died lol! but the plant lived because it wasn't affected by a serious ammonia poisoning lol. So over the course of a while probaly a month or two I bought 3 more plants not knowing the lighting requirments. 1 Cabomba, no longer thriving, basicly dead, 1 marimo moss ball, and one driftwood with mystery plant. After finding out the lighting requirments I was ticked at the LFS and my plants started dying. This is about the same time I got into breeding guppies and bought a 10 gallon starter kit for the fry. I later quit breeding (im going to start again with a fresh mind and lots more info) and turned it into a tetra tank that later broke out in ich and killed all but 2 of my neons =(. So, Im going to get into breeding again and I was looking at my lighting system as my plants where on there last legs. And Huzzah! what I saw was awesome my lights where 2 25Watt bulbs 50Watts per ten gallons !!!!!!!!!!!! So today i moved my plants over and hopefully they will start to grow! YES! and im thinking of putting the neons in my 29 gallon with my adult gups while i put the fry in my 10 gallon with plants. and im going to start culling the bad fry so i have 'Fancy Guppy fry'
