Today is my tank's 2 month anniversary!!




The current flora is:

Cryptocoryne crispatula "Ruffled Crypt" (added yesterday)
Hygrophila polysperma "Green Hygro"
Monosolenium tenerum "Pellia"
Lomariopsis lineata "Subwassertang" (added yesterday)
Fissdens sp
Rotala wallichii
Hemianthus callitrichoides "HC" (added yesterday)
Sagittaria subulata "Dwarf Sagittaria" or Vallisneria americana (unconfirmed, but I think it's Sag)
Microsorum pteropus "Java Fern"
Hemianthus micranthemoides "Baby Tears" or "Pearlgrass"
Heteranthera zosterifolia "Stargrass"




Current fauna:

1 Betta (yellow male)
6 Espei Rasbora
2 Otocinclus

As you can tell, they Asian theme has kinda been broken!!! When I set up my 75g cube I will probably take out all the plants that are not Asian, and get it set up properly! Oh well, I really like how it's looking, but it still has quite a bit of work to be done. I want to pull the difformis as I think it's too busy looking for a 10g tank. The Baby Tears are an algae magnet in my tank, and hence not doing too well, so I think I will remove it, and spread my Rotala out to cover that area. I would like some Downoi to fill in the front left and where the Stargrass is, and when the plants have grown up enough I will pull the difformis, move the polysperma back there, and put the Stargrass where the polyperma is now.

Anyway...pics are a thousand words.
