They have some Parrot's feather at Aquagiant, that is a very nice stem plant. I have some milfoil of my own (not m. aquaticum though) and it is doing fine with no CO2. It has grown a good inch in the past 5 or so days and I only have 1.4 WPG.

I'd take the L. sessiliflora off your hands if you are willing to ship it.

By the way, tank looks nice. Hope your algae problems go away. :rolleyes:

New plants added somewhere in the tank.

Pics coming in about a month or so.

Yes i said a month.

Also more plants coming soon:

Ludwiga Repens

Vals

More Anubias Nana ( i need to find a nice piece of wood to stick them all on, and replace that ugly mossy piece of wood in teh left with a nice anubias wood ).

Need to get rid of limnophila sessiflora soon to make room for the plants.

Lookin' good Kevin! :thumbs: It appears you have the BBA under control, good job!

Yeah I never had any probs with my SAE's and any other fish. I had 3 of them in my 55g community tank (angels, rainbows etc) and they were great. They are at my bro-in-laws in my old 50g and still going strong and STILL doing their 'job'. :)

Nothing doing exceptionally well in this tank at the moment.

Thikning of a redo, though i'd need to have a place for the fish for awhile.

That or buy a new unscratched 33g ( this is scratched up pretty bad ), and get to work.

I want it to be stem free.

Probably a nice glosso, hairgrass, HC mixed carpet , but aside from that i want to rely on java ferns ( got tons of this stuff now ), anubias ( all sorts, i only have nana at the moment) , and pellia ( since moss needs trims).

is the source of my inspiration.

relatively low maintenance.

Also an eheim 2234 + a mj400 think it'll be adequate?

Stock should remain the same:

2 x Angels

1 x Gold Gourami

1 x Dwarf gourami

10+ x White Cloud Mountain Minnows

2 x Stragglers (Red tail Tetra that i've had for almost 3 years now, and a Pearl Danio)

2 x oto

1 x BN pleco

1 x Peacock Gudgeon

1 x Zebra Nerite Snail

First update in ages.

This tank got loaded with crypts.

Then, i neglected this tank for ... 6+ months ?

Feedings and small (10% wc's every few weeks), no ferts or nothing.

Java ferns dying off, and crypts all melted off lately.

Lots of mulm and debris around, got around to cleaning tank a bit.

Purged most of the stems in there too.

Got around to it, headed to Natures Corner today picked up some ferts, and some Prime and got to work.

Added another filter in there, and did a big 70% WC.
