MY TANK LOOKS AMAZING!!!! Not even a week after adding 1 pleco, 9 Ghost Shrimp, 6 Amano Shrimp my tank looks awesome... Rock decor clean, plants clean, glass clean. Both filters running water clearer, plants look 500x better! So glad I got what I did and that it has been a huge improvement! Pics to come when the droid app is up and running.. who knows when that will be

I'm glad to hear that your rebuild is going well.

A good cleanup crew with regular tank maintenance makes all the difference.

Thanks James.

Update: Just did a 20% PWC. treated fish with bloodworms, plants still look amazing. need to buy me some trimmers and grabbers for plant upkeep.

Water test done, results are:

pH 7.6
Ammo 0 ppm
NitrIte 0ppm
NitrAte 10ppm

The numbers look good.

Before you start adding more fish, did you consider adding more plants than what you started with? More plants helps keep nitrAte levels manageable between water changes.
