Tank has settled down, progress being made (no 56K)

Two weeks ago...

Today...

The anacharis has grown so much, I cut and replanted it. Removed the wood on the left, put some Lace Java Fern in it's place, and even though I just trimmed the hornwort a few days ago, it's reached the surface again. You can also see growth on the Rotala on the left (even new chutes from the bottom), and the Hygro on the right.

Here's a pic I like...close-up of the Java Fern..

Here the 1.1MB full pic showing growth all over the plant:

Good pics, I can see how the plants are really starting to fill in. I would suggest adding a background, a black one would bring out the color of everything in the tank.

Wow! Looks nice!
What temp Kelvin are your lights?

Keep updating!

The background, as mentioned above, would improve the look too!

6700K, but they look too green to my eyes, so I've got a pair of 55W 9325K bulbs on their way for X-mas (thanks the GF). I'll pick up the ballast and reflectors from AHsupply when they get here.

BTW, my regiment:

Change 50% of the water every two weeks. Add 1 capful Flourish. ..................and that's it. I've got some flourish carbon on the way so I'll slowly phase that in (key word is slowly) and see if that improves growth. I like the rate at which things are growing now...but there's always better .
