Looking awesome!
All my tanks are cichlids. Maybe it's time to venture into planted world.

Another update.

My tank might be an overkill. I use RO water for all water changes. My pH is about 6.0 and my water hardness ranges from 110 to 145. I fertilize heavily with gluraraldehyde supplementation.

ADG uses 50/50 RO and dechlorinated tap.

Thank you for the comparison.

P.S. Thanks for the kind comments.

Great progress. What is your pH and water hardness?

Mike

My ph stays mid 6's per a ph monitor/controller. Co2 runs 24/7 so the controller is not used.

In 35 years of fish/plant/reef keeping I have never tested water parameters. Call it a blue thumb. But water smell and how inhabitants look and act is all I have gone by.

And dechlorinated tap water is all I have ever used. Never owned an R/O unit.

Wow, nice. Trimming time again. LOL

What is the tank size?

[Tetranerd]

Rotala Wallichii on left of picture. Nothing red on left side. There is a purple pogostemon on right side. Otherwise right side is all green and yellows, the yellows/oranges should color up once settled in.
