    Nice. Are those Baby Tears plants? I recall years ago, like 15, when I purchased some Baby Tears, not the HC that is out there today, that stuff grew like crazy in my tank, I thought I did something wrong, and thought of it as a weed as it grew everywhere, and you could not even see the gravel. Now I see people that strive to create aquascapes like that. I did something right by mistake!

    Anyway, if you ever have offspring CRS for sale, let me know, I would buy some.

          Looking good! What grade CRS are those? Did you pick those up locally or have them shipped in? I've been on the lookout for some nice CRS in the area but no luck so far. Cant wait to see the HC carpet in your tank. Are you using CO2?

                    Very nice. With co2 and that much light I'm not sure I'd put that tank in the low-tech class. lol

                    What are the facts? Again and again and again--what are the facts? Shun wishful thinking, ignore devine revelation, forget what "the stars foretell", avoid opinion, care not what the neighbors think, never mind the unguessable "verdict of history"--what are the facts, and to how many decimal places? You pilot always into an unknown future; facts are your only clue.

                        Got rid of the stem plant and rock, plant more HC and set the light where I want HC to grow
