Default After a Brief Hiatus, I'm Back

After two moves and about two years, I finally got my 55 gallon back together and running. It's mainly java moss layered between pieces of local shale, some local hairgrass dotting the right side, a native groundcover on the left which I have no idea the identity of, and some (native?) rotala indica on both sides. I collected the hairgrass, groundcover, and rotala locally from a pond and local creek. The tank specs are:

55 Gallon All-Glass
Marineland Magnum 350 Canister
~240W ODNO 6500K Lighting
Large River Stone topped with Quickrete Play Sand in the Foreground
Red Sea Paintball CO2 System



Not dosing yet as I am waiting for the algae to fall into control, I do have my bulk powder fertilizers from before, KPhos, KNit, and Dry Micros. I have 18 feeeder guppies and one Yellow Labidochromis which is going to be heading to a friend's tank to allow the introduction, perhaps, of some cherry shrimp.
