    Hmm just noticed on the pic my back LED lights are out .. only running two of the 6 strings, need to go and see what that is all about.

    Bit of daphnia ... ok this was dinner, they had some for breakfast also. I am no longer just dropping the net into the tank one I have caught some, actually doing a teaspoon 1/4 at time ... give me some idea what they are eating and how fast.

    From start to finish, this has been a great thread @f-fish! Is this one of those infinity aqua starphire tanks? Really wish I had swiped my card when YP had them on special..

    Thanks guys, yeah also had more than one thought that I should have invested in a few more of these tanks ... oh well too late.

    I really do need to get in and do a trim at some stage .. my bba forest is looking very healthy at the moment.

    Done for now,

    replaced 2 of my old 6530 strips with two 3014's they are in the front of the tank - need to go hunt for another 3014 to added to the back of the tank.

    [​IMG]

    Live stock all seem OK.

    Water still a bit dusty, I forgot to add the polisher.

    In the first foto, is that anubia barteri var. Coffeefolia? And if yes where did you get it from. They are awesome

    Sounds about right .. yes, was one of the first anubias shipments that landed - way back, slow grower under my lights and much, much bigger than what I thought it would get.
