I just got back from herring fishing and so heres a tank update. Wife did a great job taking care of everything, and everything has done a great job of growing.
I think I'm gonna try and get a couple LEDs for a moonlight rig here so i can get some updated shots of the Panaque and Ancistrus, which has grown much faster than i'd expected, i guess all that eating really does the trick.
MTS! You got great taste. Thanks for the link to the MTS kits. I want some soil in my largest planted tank BAAD for my Crypt. collection. Roots like soil. I gotta get a pre-made kit, Im too busy to do all the hard work.
Thanks! Yeah I feel like the kit is clutch for space constrained (or lazy, you decide) people such as myself. who still want to have nice plants. Its been fun.
As promised, updated ancistrus pictures. I know, cell phone quality is for loosers... interestingly though, this guy likes spirulina, also he's more comfortable with my wife than me...and so decided to pin the fins when i finally got my paws on the camera.
