do you have CO2 in your tank? The plants seem to be growing very well.

I used excel on cherry shrimps and they seemed alright. But I've decommed the tank already.

Anyway, nice work with the tank. Hope to see more of it

i believe if its replaced by ada wood, the scape would soon be overpowered by the plants.. and will not be strong enough as a hardscape..

anyway.. a casual FTS and some ember tetra pictures.



bought a new fan, ista criss cross fan.. now my tank have 3 clip on equpiment.. looks kinda ulgy.
