Work in progress, some plants still need to be moved, one still slowly recovering from transport back in Dec. I need to balance light-CO2-fert to overcome hair algae.

This is looking great! What is the name of the plants you put in both right and left rear corners?

Toss

Thanks Brian.
That must be the Java fern windelov (Microsorum pteropus 'Windelov').

Wow! Another absolutely gorgeous tank! And again, the best thing about this is how natural it appears, as though it happened in nature this way, like a slice of a pond. Superb! :)

If you want to get rid of hair algae get 3 american flag fish. They eat it like spaghetti. If you have a timid community tank just get one.

I bought female rosy barbs when I had hair algae... they took care of it very quickly!!

White Lightning

Absolutely love the tank!

Janny

It's beautiful! And inspiring.  :)

Thank you again for the kind words.
Just an update, hair algae is almost gone. All new plants are settling in nicely.
