Looks great. Like your choice of fish.
Thx buddy our tanks are all getting thereLooks great. Like your choice of fish.
Thx buddy same to urs ur tank is filling I might try a small section of Monte CarloReally coming along now KK. Loving it
Yea the tank looks dim it's on sunrise modeLimnophila needs high lighting so make sure u crank that light up I've got some coming this week also I've just amped up to 140 par at substrate
Thanks bud I can't wait til it really feels inWow tanks really starting to come together nicely , the growth showing as it evolves awesome . the assortment of plants with the overall layout really catches the eye ,
I did have a small algae break on the stellatus so it basically melted its coming back though . An my dwarf baby tears got some algae to but I found out that my co2 levels were low just not staying consistent so turned it up Abit more got it dialed in an fixed the surface agitation also this I wasn't have proper circulation of co2 an oxygen watched a video from ADU about saying it could cause algae breakout'sSuch a cool looking plant can't wait to get mine!
Tanks looking good KK, had any issues so far?

Yea I see new growth stems running along the substrate which gives me hope that it's still alive if nothing happens with the dbts will try monte carlo iv had glosso and it just grew way to fast constant trimming but thanks for the good info freshAre you getting new growth and, if so, are the new leaves a bit larger and do the stems tend to creep along the substrate? From what I've read and seen, it's a healthy sign.
A few months back my tank was fish free so getting a little generous with the CO2 and light (in that order) probably helped get the carpet going. The problem down the road was keeping it in the substrate (probably due to the substrate itself). Also, diligent trimming is needed otherwise the lower portions tend to turn yellow and die from what I've experienced.
You might want to check out Monte Carlo or Glosso as carpet alternatives.
