Well, I've had this tank waiting on me to set it up for some time. It took me about 2 months to get all of the equipment. It's kinda spars ATM because I'm just using extra plants from other tanks, not much hc bc it's just some I had growing in a window in an unfertilized jar with sand capped mud as the substrate

You have to guess as to which flavor it is.

JK, IDK, it has stayed small since I got it (like May of last year) as a little hitch-hiker with only about 6 leaves but I'm not sure as to what it is... We'll see

Another tank?!?!

How's the Dasz diffuser working? I'm debating on if I should get it or not
