    Thanks @BugMan :) I must admit I love this little tank, the plant growth might be slow since I dont use CO2 but I think it has settled in nicely now and all the plants are growing. The only issue I have had so far is the fact that my fighter gets to decide which plants gets to stay :p The bogger will uproot anything he doesnt like. Its also why there is minimal plants in the front. He pulls it out if it there is to much for his liking. Same goes for the HM bush, its allowed to grow taller but not bushier - he rips the stems out.

    @BugMan - Thanks :D Im loving the tank. Well I love all my tanks. This one is the only one that tempts me to try CO2 - but still a bit iffy on that so will keep it low tech. I just love the fact that I get similar results even if it takes longer to achieve it :p

    The reds has fadded a bit, and I do know it is due to the lack of high light. Im once again looking for better T5 8W tubes :S

    @Ryno - its not pennywort - its a small lilly. Unfortunately I don't have enough pennywort a the moment that I cant share - once mine has grown a bit I will let you know and I can post you a cutting.
