Looks like you did a great job dick! You look really young by the way, and
great pictures also. Good luck and later!

Thanks Dan. The picture is 9 years ago when I was only 61, however,
it is the same face I see in the mirror at 70. I don't get my picture
taken very often, so I used what I had.

I was interested in showing my tanks because of all the conversation,
but I don't have any plans to do more with it unless we get into a
discussion where pictures will help.

Can you get the "alt.binaries.aquaria" news group?

I am amazed at how much we can do online, but I have no idea why one
person can access a site and another not.

Try this address, it will take you directly to the fish page:

I don't know for sure. It is the same red colored plant as in the 75.
The leaves were originally green 3 years ago. For whatever reason,
the plant has thrived more in the 29.

The red plant on the far right in the 75 looks like Barclaya longifolia.
That's the only really red plant with lanceolate leaves that I know
of. It grows more or less red depending on light intensity and
nitrates. Some of the crypts have colored leaves, but they're usually
more purple. Barclaya is a notoriously difficult plant to grow and the
clump in the 29 is gorgeous.

My plants do not flower. I have always thought of them as some kind
of Cript. I remember them as starting with green leaves and then
turning. The long leaves in the 29 gallon tanks are pale green on top
and rust red on the bottom whereas the bottom of the leaves in the 75
are almost totally totally rust red with green mixed with red on the
top. I know both tanks were planted with the same starters.
