I have come to detest fake plants, but my nics in the 75g were brutal on the swords I tried in there. So I decided to try one more time and ordered a bunch of anubias. I've got a lone sword in there, we'll see if they leave it alone. They've already torn out the hygro, so that will be a no go.

Here's the before with silk plants:

After, with only live plants:

Here are the nics. They're starting to color up very nicely and so far no aggression issues. I'm sure I'll have to rehome some when a pair forms but I'm hoping that's not for a long time.

And my big male who I bought at a fish auction without knowing what he was. I had to buy the 75g for him.
