C'mon guys, bigger pictures then you'd be able to see all the problems in the tank. lol

I'll see what I can do this evening.

I still owe ya pics, I know. I've got a leak somewhere causing the outlets to blow microbubbles everywhere, so i want to get that cleared up before taking any pics. I did some work on one of the runs last night during PWC, so hopefully today things will be settled out.

Still looks great neil.

I'm overdue, but here it is.

Tanks doing well. Algae - gone, just took a few weeks for the ferts to kick in. Plants have started to really take off in growth. I'm not really trimming or doing much, just letting things really settle in before I start moving stuff around.

Anywho, a few pics for ya.

In that last pic, is that a Madagascar lace plant? Or something else? Whatever it is, its captivating!! Also, were those snails on the driftwood?

Love the pics of the oto and the RCS, looks like happy tank inhabitants. And I am completely jealous of your tank! Makes my 5 gal. look kind of shabby

Yes, that's a lace plant. The thing is getting huge. Leaves close to 2' long on it, and it throws flowers to the surface almost constantly. Gorgeous, but may be getting too big.

Yes, snails in the tank are olive nerites.

Except that it would completely take over my tank (from the sounds of it), I would love to have a lace plant. Tank looks fantastic by the way!
