How many of your tanks are planted?
Could be one plant, could be several plants (Not plastic).

Right now I am running 17 tanks and almost all have at least one plant.

I have 14 tanks and 7 of those are fry tanks and they all have a bunch of java moss in them . The other 7 have plastic and silk like plants .
Split wright down the middle ! :hat: I forgot the snapping turtle tank but that one doesn't have any plants .

The majority of my tanks are planted and not just lightly.

Don't really have a slot for mine.....about 10% or 4 out of about 40 have real plants. I have trouble not destroying the plants when catching holding females etc....so the plastic plants are 'thriving' in most tanks :)

15/16 are planted.

Only the zebra breeding tank is devoid of plants.

I have 14 tanks, 2 are planted but, since I run 1 sump for 5 of the tanks, 1 of the tanks fully planted, I'd say that's 5 tanks planted no? 1 75 is fully planted to act more as a filter for the other tanks running off that sump.

My tanks are heavily planted with Anubias, Java Fern and Italian Val. Anything else gets ripped to shreds by the mbuna, haps and peacocks, etc.

These plants seem to do okay, but still get a little chewed up.

Wish I did have some tanks that were planted but I have just run out of time for running a planted tank.
