Stand just came for my 90 gallon, right now im just waiting on the filter. I went with the Fluval Fx5, i got a pretty good deal on it I also plan to put a marineland biowheel rated for a 30 gallon tank just because i have it sitting in my house and i figured why not, help filtering and eliminate any dead spots in my flow. I got 4 6700k bulbs and 2 10,000k. Im not growing anything exotic, actually all the stuff i plan on growing is pretty easy, java ferns, swords, moss, dwarf grass etc... I made a co2 system out of a paintball gun can and a regulater that i bought at home depot for 21$. Im gonna buy a bubble counter and a diffuser not becuase i cant make them but becuase i dont want to.(i dont plan on putting co2 system in untill filters are established) I bought 7 bags of eco complete, i hope that is enough, and 2 peices of driftwood from a website, they were 30$ each but far better than anything in the LFS around my way and not much natural drift wood in NYC. Im going to cycle this tank with media fish and plants from my established 20 gallon.

This tank is overstocked, its got 5 cherry barbs 3 red eyed tetras, 1 black widow tetra, 2 bala sharks, a rainbow shark and an albino cory. I do 20% water changes every other day right now. Im gonna take out the balas, black widow, ranibow and put them in the 90 gallon. Im also going to take some substrate,media and water from the established 20 gallon and put it in my 90 gallon tank and filter. The tank wont really go through a full cycle but it will have established bacteria inserted into the system. Im planting the tank from day 1. There are 2 swords in the 20 gallon that are gonig to be transplanted along with a ton of other plants that are being delivered to my house before the weekend. If the filter comes this week, i should have pictures up by next monday.
