I see two HOB filters in some of those pics. You run both all the time now?
What are those spiky clumped grass plants in the front?
Good looking setup btw

I have 2 HOB that I clean every other time. Since I have RCS the intakes of these are covered with mesh so the flow is greatly decreased.
The grass plant is Dwarf Saggitaria. Does very very well.

I like the wood! Good job for a low light tank!

Very nicely done. The driftwood with the moss attached gives a real nice touch.

It's even prettier in person.

How're the peacock grudgeon doing, Damien?
