    Ive been playing a lot with my 40L Jebo the last few weeks. I donated the goldfish that used to live in there to a few good homes. And replaced them with guppies and will also add my female betta's once Ive gotten them grow out a bit.

    Currently Ive got 2 flourish root tabs on opposite ends in the tank and I dose the tank 2 times a week with Flourish and got my excel today so will dose with that every second day I was thinking. Currently Ive got two T5 8Watt lights in there. Im waiting to hear if my LPS can get me a T5 red spectrum light that will fit in the hood. If not I will twist a few arms and get my brother to help me readjust the lights to fit T8 lights or at least just one.

    Also if possible can someone ID this one for me please?

    Its in my smaller Jebo tank with my Betta's.

    Hello again! That's looking good and lush. The plant you want id on looks like straight java fern, google and see if I got it right.

    I see you have some moss, guessing java (last pic)... this is just an idea, but those little pots look a bit glary, take them out, cover with silicone, then roll in some dry substrate you're using in the tank. Leave to dry overnight, then attach some moss to the top half. If you bury the bottom half of the pot into the substrate, it looks pretty good quite soon... a little mossy cave that fits right in.

    Hehehe that is the idea, but I am getting some chrismas moss soon that I want to use for that exact purpose! But thanks for the tip of gluing the substrate to the pot. I wasnt sure how to get the moss to cling to the pots so you solved my dilema! Thanks :D

    Ive had some Java ferns before but the leaves where a lot broader so I thought this might be a slightly different one. But then again I dont mind, its thriving with my boys and they love the plants.
