Thanks.

The red plant is Rotala Macandra.

Default Last update for awhile.

Im not planning on doing anything to it for awhile just letting everything mature for awhile.

Full tank shot


Left side.


Right side.


Here you can see my Erio babies!!!


Here is a wierd thing, you can see some tiawan or peacock moss that is kind of grafted to my anubis leaf. I have tried to remove it many times but it just keeps coming back and I dont have the heart to snip off the leaf.

@ B

Did you attach the flamemoss to rock over there in that corner? If so, how did you do it?

I didnt attach it to the rock I just kind of put it in the corner and wedged it between the rock and the corner glass. Let me see if I can find a pic when I put it in....


Are you talking about the filter out flow???

wow. Just wedging it like that and it spread and climbed the rock? I didnt know flame moss did that. I'm excited about what mine will do now as I have it somewhat surrounding a piece of zebra rock.

and yes, i was talking about the outflow. Seems filled with a lot of gunk.

You saw the pics. it is my first forray into flame moss and I must say it was pretty exciting to see its progressoin.

I think cleaning it would make it more conspicuous, its kinda camo now.

Keep an eye on your flow rate. I cleaned my canister filters on saturday thinking the flow wasn't as strong. I got home this afternoon and during my normal tank viewing time I noticed that it was still seriously weak. Broke down the intake and return and cleaned with a stretched out clothes hanger and cotton cloth. The flow is back! Hehe.
