Thanks for the comments. Sorry for taking so long to respond, last few weeks and finals at school have me going

.

I liked the look of the riccia too, but its simply to much work to maintain. I'm done with riccia, it just to much of a headache when it overgrows and breaks loose. I'm just keeping patch of riccia in the corner of the tank to help soak up excess nutrients.

As for the tank specs:

Standard 10gal
Eclipse1 filtration hood
6700k 36watt ahsupply retrofit
DIY co2 with ladder diffuser
Marineland Stealth 50 watt heater
Eco- complete substrate

Weekly additions: Seachem- Flourish, potassium, excel.

Hey John P. The forground is the H.C. you sent me a while ago.

Still working out how to get it to grow a bit quicker. There is a bit of algae on the front section of substrate, but I don't see it in the pic. If its that blurred green spot on the right, thats just a small patch of H.C. . Thanks again.
