Plecory's Altum Planted Tank
 
Hand itchy after setting up the chocolate gourami planted tank so now convert my bare boring altum tank to a planted one too. The tank has certainly liven up alot & my family seems more interested in the tank now. Actually had this wild idea of doing a mini sumida aquarium amano style but i guess i will make do with this :D

Thanks. It's a 4.5x2x2.5ft IOUS tank. The sand i use is not the very fine kind so no problem with that. I have to put jap mat at the underflow to prevent small fishes from entering.
