Got the digital working! Yeah for employees who actually KNOW what they're talking about at BestBuy!

Only halfway to completion now. Waiting for the mosses to come in and the sealant to dry on some more crystal. Here's how it looks now:

Inhabitants: Glofish, C.algae eaters, ghost shrimp, one snail (removing snails to other tanks - they like to push under lava rock!), one bamboo shrimp

Plants: Duckweed, Java Moss, Java Fern, Marimino moss (spread out onto rock), dwarf hairgrass, onion.

Hardscape: Lava Rock, Fluorite crystal (water sealed)

Added the 'crystal flows' this morning. Trying for the look of a crystal waterfall splitting into two crystal streams.

Favorite Fish: : abn plecos right now. But it changes so much, I see a new fish and want to keep it, too. That's how I got so many tanks. I really want some rams and loaches now.
