    7.5 is KIV. waiting for the stocks to come in.

    plecs are armored catfish. no issue of being attacked...

    update some photos of the tank...
    running on 2x36 pll, 2x20 fl



    this is btw using tom barr's venturi co2 diy diffuser design. one bubble per second. fert is some sera florena, kh2po4 and kno3. dosed like every month!
    no sign of algae of any sort except those imported from previous tank. snipped.
    so far the last wc was last month because the water was too yellow...


    can't wait for the narrow leaf jf to grow out...
    may move the lotus once the njf grows out.
    not everything is in the right place...but seems to be growing slowly but surely...fingers crossed.

    have some CRS and yamato. 4 each left i think. was like ten each. Maybe hiding? Apisto may make a meal of them. Hve a very shy male macmasteri and a female caca and gonna get some viejita and bitaeniata. [collectoritis] is this advisable for breeding purposes? of course not...but will use this as grow out tank



    Would like help/suggestions on creating a moss wall. one that doesn't trap the fish or shrimp... have like a kilo of weeping moss. last one I made warped and didn't look natural.

    A KILO OF WEEPING MOSS!!! I want...

    You could try using those white/green plastic tiles and place some netting over them for a moss wall. Easy to connect together to whatever size you want. I'm using it for my shrimp tank.
