Hey Tom,
I just read a post of yours from 2007 on the barrreport. I'm looking into starting a new tank 40g breeder. MTS capped with sand. HC, Blyxa Jap. and some moss on driftwood. Going pressurized, 100 watt t5, ei (possibly). Have you ever tried a dry start with moss? Xmas moss specifically. I think a dry start would be fun to try, just not sure about the moss. Any thoughts would be awesome. I definitely enjoy your presence on TPT. Thank you!
