Thanks for the positive 
I could really do with some tips about the little helferi plants, as I often find some loose on the surface on a daily basis. I'm really regretting removing them from the baskets they came in! It seems as if very few are developing any sort of decent root system, perhaps as I'm worried about pushing them too far into the sand and then blocking light from the leaves.
The camboba has had a real growth spirt recently and a fair bit of it now reaches the water surface and those leaves have a reddy brown tinge to them. Consdiering I think the Danios have been chomping on bits too, really pleased with their results so far.
The two varieties of Ludwigia do seem to be happier since the move, as they are now showing more reddy pink on the leaves. Guessing it also helps they are now near the CO[sub]2 [/sub]ladder!
The Java fern has some fibrous ~1cm black/brown growths on the underside of leaves, is that the reproductive organ or algae? In the last week, several leaves have what look like baby fern "stalks" developing.
The hairgrass has done really well, almost tripled in height!
The two Eleocharis plants are developing good roots, but very much status quo on the leaves, or a reduction if anything (some inner leaves melted away so I removed them).
The two nanas, not in the new shots as they are on vacation in the QT for the Danios, have produced a couple of new leaves each.
The floating plant (still unknown name) now has three generations! Its leaves do tend to easily get tinged by the T5 lighting, but its doing alright.

I see a nice "triangle scape" developing once the growth is established.
