36 Corner substrate change

I finally got tired of the poor plant growth I was experiencing with the Schultz Aquatic Soil in my 36 corner. So today I switched it out for some PFS. Everything went smoothly and the changeover took 3 hours. So far all the fish appear to be happily checking out their redecorated home, although they are still a bit nervous.

Here's the before shot...I know it doesn't look that bad but trust me, it was.



My poor freaked out tetras!


FTS about 2 hours after I finished up. Still bubbling like a soda can now after 4 hours!

I personally love PFS... Is there anything underneath there, or are you using root tabs for the sword?

Tank looks amazing by the way... I never really liked corner tanks, but that one makes me kind of want one...
