My overgrown 40 gallon.

This is what happens when you do not trim or thin your plants over time.

Waterproof weed whacker?

 

[ustabefast]

Yeah, it may be a little late for selective thinning, more like pulling out handfuls.
I'm just leaving it this way for now. The Cherry shrimp are very happy!

Well, I like a jungle tank! But it's time to do a major weeding. Don't you have any hardscape in there? I don't see any. I like some rocks or wood, just IMO.

I also go for a big plant thinning...just before a plant club meet if I can wait. That way I can share & maybe have room for something else

Looks perfect, don't change a thing!

No, no whacking! (Yes, I understand I am the whack-o)

I thought I had a jungle. I am not even close.

 

[fishorama]

Me either, tanker, lol, I feel good now.

I eventually pulled some plants out of the foreground , and the white clouds appreciate the open area where they can hang out together.
Pearlweed is running amok in this tank now, so it's still overgrown and is becoming a haven for my rcs shrimp.
