Digging the plant selections.

Are you gonna try and make 'trees' out of the wood and moss?

[DiscusKid]

Actually no, i was hoping the mini pellia would spread throughout the whole piece of wood but it decided to turn into a bush on the top lol..Ill have to trim it into shape soon

[Mzungu]

Lol, yeah, pellia tends to have a mind of its own. ) It reminds me a lot of riccia, actually. You have to pay very close attention to it for it to do what you want it to do. :)

[DiscusKid]

Yea i noticed lol..i trimmed it today we'll see how it grows now..

[wesleydnunder]

This tank is officially algae free and i hope it stays this way!!!i added 2 ottos and the last surviving killifish i have left from my breeding days, a really old Nothobranchius Foerschi female called 'Gloria'.

Enough talk here are the pics:

NICE!!Good design!Looks really good are u going to put any fish in it?

[DiscusKid]

The cube is either getting some ruby tetras since I've always wanted them, or Crystal red shrimp. And the 45-P I'm not sure yet, any ideas?
