This is where am at now I removed a shed-load of bad condition plants at the back but as you can see there some nice new growth coming up.
Iv got bba and bga but am fighting it lol

dosing eastcarb/TPN+/NO3 now to try and take better care of plants before i move on to a new rescape

Wow, you wallpapered the tank - those are some very domesticated fish

All jokes aside, it's a nice rescape, maybe a little too 'central' to be ideal for me. You should get hold of a plain black background though, show off the plants better

hehe that's not centre though there about a foot of tank from the inlet. just i got a few cut off growing there lol. But know what you mean could do with shifting over more.

I thinking having one type of background plant is best.

Heh, my mistake! Just looked at the photo further up the page. I meant backing, not background plants - you with me?

yep 100% with you was just making a comment on the new scape. Before had a big bushy plant in the middle think it looks better with the same type of plant at the back. Just have to wait for it to grow and fill out

Heys guys took hedge cutters to the tank and recaped again!!!. Think its looks much better now

Moved the wood right over to the side. Moved the Intake to the side so I can plant fully along the back. (need to clean the watermarkers on the glass at the back

I now only have Sunset hygro along the back which is starting to grow all along the back. I spilt one pot of hairgrass along the substrate to make a carpet. Does harigrass take long to spread or should I get a couple more pots? I also got 1 Crypt Wendtill and spilt it into 4.

I got java moss coming tomorrow hopefully for my Vision should I stick a bit on my wood on this tank ?

wood positioning looks better
