This is the root stripped of most of the larger anubias except for one small barteri on the left hand side. The rest of the hardwood is covered in the the anubias nana var. the java fern, and the assortment of mosses.
kind of decided on something like this but ended up with the small piece of root back right on the left hand side as well.
This is a day after setup and about a 200% water change a couple of hours before, as you can see it's still very very cloudy don't know if it's the sand or if it's a bacteria bloom.
I think in the future I'm going to stake out the floating plants and stick in the 2x28w tubes for photo shoots which should be a lot easier to do now I've modified the hood a little bit. The tube holders are now firmly screwed into the hood were as before they were superglued.
Lilaeopsis mauritania hopefully it will take apparently it needs less light than Lilaeopsis Brasiliensis. I've used lawn dividers to split it up from the Sagittaria subulata behind it.
Some of the baby tears from my nano tank, the rest are in the propagator.
You can see the divider in parts, hopefully the Lilaeopsis will take and it will be covered. The dwarf sag will probably just try to climb over the top but I'm hoping it will help a little bit.
dirty super glued moss, looking pretty bad but it will grow out.
The Ludwigia sp is looking pretty sorry for itself, now that I've gotten rid of the huge crypts I'm hoping it will have more flow and co2 around it.
The Echinodorus had pretty damn poor roots, I think the crypts were again simply taking up all the space as the root structure on the crypts were pretty epic. The crypts, swords and anubias are going into my sisters new tank.
Some damage to the old anubias nana leaves I don't think I sprayed it enough when it was out of the water, didn't think it would dry out as quickly as it did. The larger anubias aren't blocking the structure of the redmoor root anymore.
I think the tanks is going to look much better and still have the wild jungle look when it all grows in.
