I’m extremely happy with the goings on with the tank this week. Good solid growth and near 0 GDA. Water change tomorrow and I might get biblical with the layout. Go big or go home!

Tank is looking awesome! What do you think is helping recently?

New substrate, controlled feeding and lowered light intensity while plant mass is coming up. My guess anyways.

I’ll keep light intensity where it is for a few more weeks then start bumping it up slowly after. The Furcata and Myrio look like they want a bit more light.
 
Well, good maintenance day yesterday. Here’s some shots of where I’m thinking it’s headed. I hadn’t realized I buried my lilly bulb and I may have killed it. Added some Cypt but it’s covered in algae. I did a pretty strong dip and hopefully it improves in the coming weeks. This water change puts the tank near 0dKH now.

I love this tank!

It just has it's own certain style that is easily recognizable. And I always notice the subtle changes and new additions as time goes on. Love the addition of the Furcata.

Definitely one of my favorites and I look forward to each new post.......so keep the updates coming!!

Hopefully I can get it as nice as yours!
 
LOL I am trying to catch you my friend!

Did you get the Furcata from Joe? If so then it's a relative of the batch in my tank!!
It was in Fabio’s plant pack. Had just a few small stems that seem to be doing decently. Joe was kind enough to send me some Tulu, hoping I can get it looking nice.
 
Sadly most of these type lights are imported without any support.
I only use quality lights for a company that makes their own light.
GHL is a German aquarium computer company. They make all their own equipment in house.

Week Aqua is a quality light that they make themselves. They just do not have stateside support yet. They are really incredible for the price point, and I’m glad we have such a solid vendor in Aqua Rocks Colorado.
