You know what, you're right. I should upload them. Gotta steal my mom's camera though. My phone's got a 2 mp, my camera's a 5 mp, but my mom, she's got a 10 mp. It's still a work in progress. Puffers are probably gonna go in soon, maybe Friday, and the cories probably on sunday. Hopefully I can pick up another puff this weekend too! You guys have all been a great help. I know I keep posting threads with maybe seemingly obvious answers, but I'm just not sure. I'm still learning...I've been maybe doing this for 6 months?

i'm right there with you, Kelso. I feel like I post question after question too. I want to gain all the knowledge I can though. However, everyone on this forum is always so open and welocming and always willing to help. You're doing a wonderul job and I can't wait to see the progress of your tank in the coming weeks. Congrats to you on a job well done!

I got my plants today. They are planted and they are awesome. Everything I ordered was there. Beautiful plants. Great size to them and packaged wonderfully. They arrived Friday in Colorado from Ohio and were sent on Wed. Can't beat that.

Thanks Mary and Dan.

awesome kelso! are there pictures of this new 75 in your Aquarium Log?
i am sooo checking them out! ive been interested in this tank set up since first you said you were thinking bout it!
CONGRATS! how are the plants you both got (mean harri and kelso) did they looks lush and healty when they arrived or any dead plant material??

The plants are great looking rosehower. They're big and lush. I took the Red Rubin out of the wet newspaper and was like wow. Being my first time ever with real plants I didn't know what to expect as far as packaging, how easy or difficult to remove the plastic pot from the potted plants, etc...
It was a breeze. I layed everything out on the table. They plants were all marked as to what each one was. I left them wrapped in their wet newspaper and laid each plastic baggie with the plant name written on it with each one. I just removed that paper from each one that I wanted and went to town.

You will not go wrong buying plants from Sweet Aquatics. I've read the forums here and abroad. I've seen their responses to people. They are a small business that cares about customer service. That's not a common thing now a days. Sad, but true. I'll throw my money at good, well run small businesses all day long over a big corporation any day. Real people working hard to provide a great product and great customer service is what America is all about. And Sweet Aquatics fits that bill to a "T".

first i just wana say DAMN STRAIT!
and now... for something completely different( lol..)
i need to email them again then about the mysterious "Club Moss" plant i have. i asked the LFS to order it again and find the real name. we'll see. i have asked a bunch of ppl on here boutit too. but i need to send a newer email to SA because they have 3 plants similar to it and mabey they can tell which it it.
also i think i might end up ordering a "29 gal" pack from them. i will need to call them and talk about things. (i hope they have about an hour 1 day to waste on me) i tend to talk a lot (if you hadnt noticed already lol)
i'm so glad your tank is coming together, it looks so great! and btw what is the red rubins stats, warm water but what temp, hard or soft water, whats it like, its a grassier looking plant it would help break up the view of all the swords i have in there now (amazon and argentine)

I agree. They are great! They are also very fair and honest. If the shipping cost goes over what it ends up being at the time of delivery, they will reimburse your account. Great customer service and so fast too! I can really appreciate this because I know what it takes to get things out in the mail for customers and to take the extra step to reimburse anything that may go over regarding shipping.

Thanks so much, Sweet Aquatics!

I like that one too. I almost got that one in my last order but since i have the Red Melon I thought they would be too close and I would not have room for the location it would need to be. I am going to have to get another big tank for my new plant addiction!

Shame they don't ship to Canada..... Sounds like a great place with fantastic service
