It,s amazing the difference a trim makes

[Callan]

Hello all,

I have previously posted pics of my experimental tank. I have since added a heater after deciding to utilise this tank again. It needed a good trim after being let run wild for a cpouple of years.

Whilst it is certainly not aquascaped by any stretch of the imagination it is amazing the difference has done. The photos aren't the best but you will still see the difference.

Picture 1 and 2 is what it looked like originally

This is after the trim and a bit of replanting.

Bit of a tidy up. Was it java moss that seemed to be growing everywhere? 

[Callan]

Yes it was fishmosy. The sword had also grown fairly well and the bolbitis and sword had thrown a few pups. The annubis petite has grown quite well and now that more light is able to penetrate into the tank it will be intersting to see if the plants that were not getting much light will grow even more. There was also some riccia fluiteans that had grown and was clumped in with the duckweed on top of the water. I have also added a few spikes of the two different types of rotola that I got from Neo into the tank.

So what do you have in the tank currently? Fish or shrimps?

The rifle I found the other day and I have put some of my cull blue gene red rilli to see how they go before I decide what to put in?

Maybe some mischlings eventually.
