Weekly update... I moved a few of the ferns; the plantlets were removed from the front edges of the branches, as was the larger one below in the center; I felt they were ruining the view and the flow. They were moved to several spots, making the coverage a bit denser in the process. I also removed the Riccia; it was not adhering to the lava rock, so I cut my losses, slapped on some of the cut-up moss, and go from there. I got my Koralia Nano 900 in the mail today, so placed that in it's designated spot. I am a bit disappointed about the flexibility of the powerhead, it does not rotate the advertised 360, so I had to stick it on the side panel, instead of the back panel as intended, but it doesn't mess the view up too bad, so no harm, no faul.
The MC has continued to melt though. Have added some I had lying around, but I fear the worst; I'm pretty much convinced it's due to too much light, it doesn't seem to like too much light. Had noticed the same behaviour before, in Indiscipline, but was told that was ridiculous, but am seeing the same thing now! Also, in Red, the MC grows best away from the brightest light, so take that for what it's worth.
Anyway, just a couple of quick phone pics for now.
As you can see, everything else is still ticking along nicely; the hairgrass is spreading all over the place, the P. Helferi is starting to creep across some of the lavarock, most of the Javafern have attached already, the moss is starting to cover most of the wood, even though in some places, it has not even attached yet, but there's still plenty of time. P.Erectus and the Ludwigia are doing great, grown quite a bit, especially the P. Erectus, the Crypt-melt has stopped, and there are new leaves all over the place. Very happy all in all!
