Fluval Vicenza 180

Lol... there is literally no room in the substrate to fit any more though... I guess i could make some by moving some of the rocks out to free up some space. I guess i could fit another 27 Crypt Wendtii Browns in there...

Added a MASSIVE Anubias Heterophylla and some Cryptocoryne Amicorum. Also swapped a few plants around. Just hoping it settles down a little now.

Also added 6 Red Eye Tetra's. They're ace, really liking them.

Tetra's have settled in very well indeed. They're pretty decent shoalers too. Nice to see some white in the tank. Will snap a few pics later foor the people that are interested.

No way, they're super fish! I'm wanting to up the to 8 at least i think. They haven't left each others side yet. Well, apart from 1, lol.

Will try and get pics tonight.

The Amicorum has hardly melted at all in this tank, which is great!! Very pleased with it and the new Anubias.

Seem to be noticing some Hair Algae though in a few places...

How's the hair algae problem coming along mate?

Seems to be doing ok atm, no real influx as of yet. Got a bit of maintenance to do today so will look a little more closely at it.

Removed the thickest part of the weeping moss from the branch at the top, the filter flow had loosened it so I pulled it off. At least I have a nice big chunk to use somewhere else now.

Cabomba and the elodea need pruning as they're at the waters surface now. Got a few strands of vallis to remove to that are seemingly unhealthy. The new growth is very green indeed though.

The crypt 'tropica' courtesy of ian is really starting to do well, the leaf pattern is great.

Will get you some later on mate. Just done my water change and cleaned all the glass and removed the manky Vallis. Decided to leave the pruning until a later date as it adds to the jungle look.

That is cheating
