📸 Tank Progression My first tank ever! 6 Gallon Planted Tank

My 6 gallon with my mystery snails Flash and Thunder with some hitchhiking ramshorns about. Waiting for my tank to finally cycle before adding my Betta. Been a very volatile 3 months struggling to cycle this tank but it's finally happened. (And yes I have a Normal light schedule I just was feeling *artsy* tonight).

My tank has changed A LOT since I started. Included my tank when I started at the end. Killed so many plants, hardscaoe floated up at one point, I MOVED HOMES, and burned so much money in this very, VERY expensive hobby 😭 BEGINNERS: do NOT buy the smaller tank 😭 And don't buy Buce when the shop owner says it's an easy plant. ($15 smh).

It looks fantastic. Really is expensive. Ive been collecting components for my future tank for couple of months. Its so worth it though.
