I just wished my tank would get loaded with little bubbles from pearling like some tanks I see where there is a steady flow. Im getting pearling but its a bubble here and there etc not a big mass of them lol

Following this thread, neat ideas, that wall is so cool! I totally see the Irish country side.

Pearling is not for the faint of heart. . It has a tendency to make people a bit crazyyyyy

OK I just ordered rest of my plants from Nilocg Colin it is nice being able to get my plants and ferts from one place at reasonable prices I highly reccomend him if you need something. I will be getting some Dwarf Baby Tears, and some Micranthemum 'Monte Carlo' for my ground cover, 2 Bylaxa Jap for the sides of stone wall and some utricularia graminifolia for the ground under my tree. once that shipment comes in I can call this landscape Complete. However I am looking for that 1 special something for the middle of the top tier but that will take a while as it has to be short bushy and look badass rofl

Well today I got some Cyperus Helferi for behind the tree and basically the left back wall of the tank. it will be great back there as it is fine leafed grass and will grow to top of tank where I will keep it trimmed. when it grows and thickens up will form a nice place for my Nano fish to hide and also for them to lay their eggssess. Also my CO2 guage is now instead of bright yellow a nice light green.
