Ices tanks (new pics)

The ferny plant is African fern aka Bolbitis heudelotti.

I have it in both tanks. The one in the 75 gallon is attached to driftwood, the one in the 55 is in a pot covered with some gravel, just enough to hold it down not buried.

The 75 gallon has 130 watts od CF lighting, the 55 has 96 watts of CF.

My pH sits under 6 in the 75 and around 6.8 in the 55. The water in both tanks is soft.

I don't inject CO2 so I can't increase it.

I just started doubling my PO4 to see if that helps. I may double my Excel dosage also.
 
Figured I answered a post on sand and plants that I should update my pics.

I lost all of my pics due to OS upgrade. This was just a quick pic, I don't like the angle so I'll get some new ones soon.
 
Looking good, Ice!

Looking today during my PWC I seen another bloom on another anabuis.

Keep close because I'm going to change my scape some. The African Ferns and Anabuis do so well in the 55 I'm moving the ones in my 75 to the 55 and moving some crypts from the 55 to the 75.
