Sunstar

Been forever with an update. Things have changed alot. some of the plants made it. some did not. I lost Kaon in a serious dropy outbreak.

The lights did not work very well, they kept going out. I can make changes, in time to that.

I have let the tank grow pretty wild. I moved my water lilly into another tank as the light is not sufficent for its survival.

Still the money wort is doing well, growing out of the water mostly, flowering. I've pruned it back just now in hopes it might bush.

Just about 1 year later:

SUNSTAR!! It's been AGES since I've seen this tank. I'm so sorry to hear about your loss of Kaon. On the other hand, the Bacopa monnieri is doing quite well, and flowing for you!

Your tank still looks very nice. Glad to see this update. I've really enjoyed your thread. It's hard to believe it's been a year!

Sorry to hear about Kaon. Bettas are so personable. It's easy to get attached to them.

Sorry to hear about your loss. Fish have always held a close spot in my heart as well. I just recently lost a figure eight puffer that I have had for almost 2 years. He had such personality too. I would feed him by hand almost every night too. I would put the food in the palm of my hand and lower it in and he would sit cupped in my hand eating. Not sure what killed him, I think old age as for the last few months he was acting rather ill and not like himself and I could not figure it out for the life of me.

As for your tank I love it. I wanted to do something similar but something always seems to come up right when I am about to start. I was going to make a betta cave where only a little bit of light would be coming through to make little ribbons of light in the water,,,,, cant seem to get started though.

Again, great job on the beautiful tank.

Chris.

Any updates? I love this tank!
