Oh see them now. And your shark as well looks good but I think it actually might be big enough to eat shrimp :O. I I guess that now you just have to wait.... Boring. And when your rotala gets big enough trim and replant so it gets nice and bushy. Your echinodorus looks like it's doing great :). My tank is suffering from to little light small leaves and the growth rate of a turtle. :( Considering buying a small led light for the winter season.

Yea the sharks funny round feeding time he doesn't eat anything but doesn't want certain fish to have anything he never goes near my corys or rams but the sword tails and mollies he goes for so I'm not sure!

Yea going to start cutting and replanting them this weekend still lot of dead algae ridden pieces but once it started growing I didn't want to cut them early.

I presume your referring to the plant I know as water sprite I think it is??

I actually moved my tank to the other side of the door as the sun just created algae problems but I had the light glaring away too. Winter weather for you always dark here.

Hi looking good. I have been thinking a bit about lay out. I have you considered moving the Moss deadwood to the center or even to the left and a bit further back. I think it would bring together your plant groups and give a better composition. Just a suggestion ;)

To be honest it's well overdue a move round, I need to cut and replant some of the stems now there growing well. I have bought another piece of wood similar so I will give that a go move it over and back and when I've soaked the other piece try and fit it all together. Can't believe I still have no shrimp last twice I've been they have sold out!!

Hej been swamped in work lately. I looks good. The back is almost covered in green :) and nice move with the wood. If you move on of the Amazon runners you can use it to cover the filter.
