Changes to the tank I made in the last couple of weeks:
Grouped Buceps and Anubias 'mini coin' together, makes the scape more organized I think. The anubias 'mini coin' does stand out with its darker green tones.
I split the Java fern orange narrow bush, propagating another bush on the right side. Orange tips show up very well by this season.
Lobelia feayana has been propagating fast.
I should really move the Micranthemum umbrosum white to another tank, but I don't have space, so its sitting here awkwardly on the left front. Grows decently well for a white plant, so I want to cultivate more of it.
Anubias mini coin seem to have +50% mass in the past month - I know they grow faster in high tech tanks but this fast? Maybe the TC effect is still playing out.
Since start of the aquarium, the Lysimachia parvifolia have been replanted once, so this is second cycle growth. Did it mainly to cut it down to size.
Lagenandra is still lagging, I think it didn't transition well when first added in, and is still stunting from that transfer - but maybe not a bad thing as well cos it stays small.
Rotala macrandra mini type 4 has slowed down its growth speed after 2-3 trimming cycles. Letting the weakened rooted bottoms that have been trimmed repeatedly regenerate, rather than replanting new tops is a good strategy to slow down stuff that is growing too fast relative to other bushes. However, the rooted portions need to be kept in stable growth conditions (so no algae infestation long term). I think this is the difficult part for most folks.
