25 days

sorry for out of focus...
Buces - major melt the first 2 weeks, showing new leaves...
Cryptocoryne Parva - still strugling, not a single new leaf...
Cryptocoryne petchii "Pink" - very slow...
Glossostigma elatinoides - fine!
Utricularia Graminifolia - fine
Helanthium tenellum - fine
Lilaeopsis New Zeland - a few dead leaves
Rotala Nanjeshan - fine!

maybe some cyano in the rocks...

cheers

Why do you have one outflow at the top and one at bottom? Isn't that counter productive?

Why do you have one outflow at the top and one at bottom? Isn't that counter productive?

Why should it be?
I use this setting in my 3 tanks and i'm happy!
I've tested lot's of diferente configurations...

The lower outflow allows CO2 to be injected at a lower level...
It's also the level of my water chance, so i don't stop the filter do make one!

The other at the top is adjustable, up down, left right...
I use for surface movement...

This configurations is the best one that i tried, but i'm openned to change for better one.

Cheers

Thanks Greenfinger2!
Some major cut...

Glosso out, wood out, Cryptocoryne petchii "Pink" out.
Still to many buces, stop counting on 40... (too much for this layout).
I'll give a chance to UG as a carpet this time, let's see.
Ambulia sp. Vietnam enter on top left, nice light green! (thanks to Nuno Matos)
