I'll say, this tank has changed a lot. It's in a state of recovery atm, although the new plants have responded well. So with that....
I made some more changes last night! By repositioning the anubias nana from the front to the group on the left, I made room for and replanted the tiandra (the stuff doesn't do stay well in this substrate). I also removed my lowly bubble ladder and replaced it with a small powerhead and stuck the CO2 up the intake. It makes a nice cloud of tiny bubbles every 4 seconds.

This tank is really coming along! I love all the different textures. That Blyxa might overpower the Anubias right next to it though, so you'll probably have to keep on top of it.

Nice work!

The progress of this tank is amazing! Looks good so far, I love that anubias coffeefolia, I need some of that in my tank, it's a great looking plant.

thanks, the anubias coffefolia are my favorite looking plant. I've had these particular plants for over 3 years now.

Hey guys, thanks for the comments.

This tank is at a cross roads right now. It's a little over grown and algea ridden. I've recently obtained new lights and that threw a lot out of whack. I'll be rescapeing this bad boy within the month...
