    Thanks, I agree, tetras seem to have their best colors in a planted tank. The reds on Neons, Cardinals and Rummynose Tetras were so intense when I had them in my planted tank. Lemon Tetras also color up fantastically in a planted tank.

    Thank you

    I have Siamese algae Eaters so no to both of those fish. Once I have CO2 injection on the tank I will add Pearl Gouramis back in. They don't seem to do well with Excel dosing.

    The tank looks great John. I'm hoping my planted tank looks even half as good as yours my friend.
