As many of you know I've battled a few things with my fish and tank. I had some NitrAte issues and other diseases etc... I made a decision tonight and it hurt to do it. I removed all PLANTED Anubias in an effort to be able to better gravel vac the tank
I did it for the health of my fish. I know ALOT of members loved my heavily planted Cichlid tank and the plants were all doing well BUT they hindered my efforts to perform a really good vac. So here is the tank with no PLANTED Anubias everything you see is glued down. So what do you think. I was sad but in the long run it will make maintenance.
It opened the tank up a bit as well. I guess those 12+ planted made a deference.

Hope I didn't disappoint.
Here's a before picture. Also you'll notice the before was taken later in the day so the daylights are off.
