Fluval Spec Work In Progress

This is coming along really well!

Cheers Liz, I'm really pleased with how well it's going, the Crypts are doing really well and have new growth appearing everyday.

I'm still contemplating giving one of the small cheap pressurised C02 systems a go.

I think it looks nice as it is mate, i dont think you even need to bother with CO2, its such a small tank you cant afford a huge amount of growth anyway?

I would love to be able to do something similar...

Cheers Tizer. Your probably right about the C02 the plan was for it to be low maintenance so I don't want to spend too much time trimming stuff.

Thanks minnnt, judging by your other tanks yours will look great.
