lighting remains the same, just that on hindsight, i should have gotten 3x20watts(not readily available) or at least 3 x 18 watts. My 4x15watts because of its shortness, plants converge to the center.

The tank has become a nursery comprising glosso, riccia, e. stelletas, HC (very new) blyxa japonica, D. Diandra Rotala (Macandra green?) L. Aromatica.
On the outskirts (where my lights font fully cover) are teneluss and some crypts. only my ludwigia pantanal aint doing that fab.

You can see the canopy formed by the stem blocks out the lgiht below.

Will tear the whole thing apart and proceed with rescaping as soon as possible.

cheers
that's nice greg, esp since u're only using 4x18w, n u can manage to acheive that effect
well if u're rescaping n have any spare plants do lemme know, might wanna "adopt" some
