55 gallon tank with a 4.5 inch RES, 2 Sarrassa Comets, 2 Red Tetras, 1 Giant Danio, 1 Black Fin Tetra, 1 Rosey Red, 2 Golden Chinese Algae Eaters, 1 Pleco, and 4 red claw crabs... too much? Ok, I'll get a bigger tank.

If it was easy to send, I would! I bought just a little too much for a 10 gallon tank so I fed some of it to the turtles. Then I left it alone for a few weeks ..some of it had gotten uprooted (I don't know why I didn't bother to fix it.. Lizardman seem to enjoy it though!). Today, I pulled all of it out and took it apart where there were new roots .. Now I could fill 2 more 10 gallons! Stuff grows crazy fast! I put some in a bowl of water by the turtle tank..it will get eaten. I put another bowl outside..curious to see how it does in the sun!

No, but if you have any questions, I guess you can ask them right here or you can start your own topic.
