My rotala is really shaping up :)

Trying to get a pic of my new additions:

Oh, and yes, I did take the moss out. I didnt want it to get infested with algae :(
 
It was very overgrown:

I trimmed the rotala down a lot. I didnt want it to die off too much from lack of light and wanted better flow. Some of the leaves had died, but they'll grow back and it will bush up:

I have been trimming and replanting the downoi (going for a foreground maybe) And using root tabs with great success. I found and extra stem of it in my lim. aro. jungle when I trimmed it back:

lol yeah, it is very green, that's why I added the lily. As I just posted on another forum, It;s because my nitrates were so high. I haven't dosed in a long time and I've been doing big water changes. The new growth will be more red.
