    @Siamese fan - no worries at all! Im used to it by now :p

    Sean - glad to hear it! Its a slow grower but once it does grow it doesnt stop.

    Lloyd - hahahaha Yep trust me I will do :D Altho the HM I planted in there is struggling a little bit, why I have no idea? Just loosing leaves, but the plant is still green little sticks, Im leaving it in there and waiting, it happened to a few plants and they bounced back lovely. Im just happy the ferns are settling in and pushing new shoots now.

    She only needs to ask :D My HM is like a weed now... good but oh so bushy :D
    Both Rotola's are doing very well , clipped the foreground ones a bit and replanted along the side. so will likely be able to give her a good bunch by next week.
    The Nanjenshan is starting to grow in very nicely now, got a good few sprouts that have reached water level. Will allow it to grow a bit more before cutting and donating.

    Hehehe I'm looking at options for one, i don't like the old style ones that you glue on with olive oil. Was considering getting black cardboard an laminating it before i tape it to the glass. Will be easier to apply aswel. Since moving the tank will be hard.
