    So i think its intresting to see how fast it grows
    nothing was added to the tank. Only some few small gupies to grow out.

    i took those white stuff you use when you go fishing to hold the bait on the hook. The type that streches. After about a week to 2 weeks i wanted to remove it but actually just broke off so works quite nice
