I did a little cleanup today. The plants were so thick at the top, the light wasn't getting through very well. Cleaned the glass. I found some MTS way up on top of the plants.

It took a while to get my plants going, now I'm going to look for something different soon. The val had to get cut back, it was snaking around everything. cut about eight inches off.

Here's a before and after shot. Sorry, the first one is pretty dark. I forgot to darken the room.

the leaves at the top were getting all hairy.
 
Great trim up job!
 
My water level drops quickly, if I scrape the deposits off the top of the tank, will the shavings in the water be safe for the fish?
 
Brightens it up
 
I'm tired of the weeds. I need more sophisticated plants. :grinyes:
