I'm in AWE! Bee-oootiful!

I'm just in the process of starting my first catfish tank and there couldn't have been better inspiration than your pictures. Thank you for posting them. Do you use CO2? The plants are as nice as the communities!

Wow. I now have a goal to shoot for. Your tanks are incredible. So far I only have the tank and two furry tank-topper cats. Gotta start somewhere. :)

Wow again.

Wonderful! That last picture with the shrimp really needs a caption contest :lol: I think he's doing a fencing move.

Glenny, can you tell me what the large plant is in the 60tank(?) on the right end, large ovate leaves, three ribs, tallest plant. It's beautiful. It think it's also in one of the close-ups.

When's the book out? Calendar, playing cards....

Thank you Tana for the kind reaction! :D

I'm not sure but the plant you mean is probably an Echinodorus bleheri...

the shrimp was stealing the only algae/wood wafer in the tank so the rhinomale was observing him! :D it was funny! :lol:

a book or a calander! may be! may be!...

Simply beautiful fish, tanks and photography Glennie! I love the way you planted your tanks they look great. If you'd like to share I'd like to know what types of plants you use for your tanks. I'm getting ready to set up a 90g catfish tank and use one of yours for a model.

Hi Greg,
Just piping in with a plant tip - check out http://www.aquaticplantcentral.com/. Good pictures of many plants and the Guru of planted tanks is sometimes on the forums. It should give you a great start to the planting part of your new aquarium and congrats on starting your catfish tank :thumbsup: - I'm in the same boat - just finishing the cycling/planting.

Glenny's tanks are inspiring a lot of people!!! They're spectacular.

Thanks Banana, they are gorgeous tanks. Wish I had that kind of skill and the eye to build mine like that. Thanks for the website and good luck with your new tank. What kind of catfish are you shooting for?
