Looks good hopefully the carpet will turn out how you like. My buddy struggles with dbt but finally got it to carpet.
I have micro swords but it came in a small plastic "pot" and it is a good 1-1/5" above the gravel!
Weekly update picture! I had a little BBA show up as my phosphate levels rose a bit too high but i corrected it and cleared up in a week. The cabomba is not getting as bushy as id like even after all the trimming. I pulled up most of the bacopa to remove the old heater and trimmed the old growth off the bottom. Still on the look out for some UG for the foreground if i can find some! I have really enjoyed this build so far!
Im posting a mid week update since i did a lot of work today. I removed the dwarf baby tears as the didnt look good and i couldnt get them to stay planted (any suggestions for a new foreground plant?) i trimed the cabomba and its filling in nicely. Please ignore the heater? and the mesh over the filter intake (i had gotten shrimp and they thought it was a slide but they were sadly mistaken). I am seeing some nitrite in the water due to the cycling process but that should clear up soon! Feel free to comment away!
