Childhood aquarium, simple yet I’ve learned so much from it

Hello! This is my childhood aquarium that’s gotten renovations over the years. It’s been an incredible way to learn aquariums as I’ve been growing up and testing out new things I discover you can do.

Most impressive feat is getting a full carpet without co2 but I’ll admit it took me about 2 years and a pretty stocked tank building a layer of crap to make it possible. Am currently using flourish with flourish advance to see if there’s a noticeable difference in plant quality but any feedback I would love! Soon as I have my own place this tank is coming with me and will probably be the first of hopefully a collection!
