Hey Antonio,

The Eustertalis melted, probably not enough light in the big tank. All of the lotuses are thriving

BTW I need help ID´ing the plant in the last picture, I have narrowed the candidates to Gratiola sp, Limnophila aromatica and Limnophila aromaticoides.
Help!!!.

Great tank, Mortadelo !!!!!!

I am thinking Limnophila aromatica. I have that plant in my tank as wel (and that is how it was labeled at the LFS). Not as good looking as yours though

Mortadelo,

What an improvement in aquascape from previous tanks. I'm glad that you went with slope effect and left right side empty. Really works in this tank. I would work a bit more on substrate cover. Is that Marsilea sp. ? Doesn't look too healthy or is it just the picture ?

As for as Gratiola/Limnophila question.

Look into THIS !!!!!!! topic for additional information.

Good job.

You are right Jay, it is Marsilea sp. and it is not healthy. I don´t know what is wrong with it, it grows healthy new leaves but the old ones quickly turn brown. I could use Glosso for the same effect but no, I want a marsilea lawn.
I am thinking of giving it a haircut leaving the rizomes to regrow.

It´s a beautiful piece of nature.

I like this fish-eye effect.

what is your camera?
I am thinking to buy a Nikon Coolpix 5400.

Feel the Chocolate Gourami power

My camera is a Kyocera finecam S4, really not the best one for taking pictures of aquariums. I guess the best site for info on digicams is www.dpreview.com
