(Unsure if I’m doing it wrong, but I seem to only be able to upload one image. See below for more).

I’m less than one week away from my anniversary with this tank. One whole year, and a whole lot of changes.

Sometimes I miss how fresh and clean it looked in the early-mid stages, especially when the Limnophilia Aromatica was bushy. But I love how it looks now, so colorful and a bit messy.

For any first starting their tank and getting buyers-remorse if it looks odd or ugly to start, just remember that it’s gonna grow and change!

    Thank you :) originally I had Caridina Pure Red Line shrimp, but unfortunately they suffered because I couldn’t keep parameters nice for them (I believe the bags of pea gravel are leeching minerals) so there are only 2 or so left. So I got some Neocaridina Red Cherry shrimp and they are thriving, there’s like 30 now. I also have 12 Pygmy Cory’s

      Aw, I’m sorry to hear about the caridinas, but cherry shrimp and pygmy cories sounds like an absolutely lovely tank, corydoras are such cuties 😊
