here is an update on my 8 gallon. The tank has been doing very well. I think it is pretty much stable, i rarely get any type of algae, i got rid of my black beard algae using spot treatments of excel, and dosing excel after water changes. I got rid of my green spot algae too, i occassionaly get some though on the sides of the glass after like 2 weeks. I only have been dosing 2 ml brighty k daily. This tank has become pretty low maintenance.

today i added 7 red ruby tetras! This tank really needs a school of something, but i dont know how noticeable they will be in a picture since they are small fish.

looks really good, well balanced. I bet it is a PITA to groom those stem plants every week?

I actually only trim the plants maybe once every two months maybe even three. I only dose brighty k and no other ferts so as not to induce superfast growth. But trimming isn't too bad in such a small tank. But in the beginning it was a pain yea because i wanted fast growth to compete initial algae.
