Nice shot of the old scape.

So, you're still dealing with algae issues, eh? If it makes you feel any better, I'm still knee deep in that diatom problem, only I found out it was never diatoms, it's GDA. It was pretty clear after it turned all the glass green, then sloughed off into the same brown mess I've been looking at for the last 6 months, it's all over leaves, hardware, everything. I guess I never gave it a chance to get green before and automatically thought brown = diatom. I let it die off once and it came back full strength. Good news is some new otos are cleaning leaves with no problem. I went ahead and rescaped the tank anyway, tired of waiting, of course that brought on some nice fuzz algae that's taking it's sweet time to go. Can't wait to set up the 110 low tech.
