I got around to doing a trim tonight. It was almost completely filled with plant mass.
The plants seem almost self sustaining now, i only give a very very occassional mist with fertiliser.
In it now we have java ferns, hc japan, ar mini, s repens, various crypts, rotala, anubias, an orchid, wild moss.

Can you spot the Puffer?

This tank is 2 years old now! Very overgrown jungle.

I really like how it's got a grungy lived in look now.

Puffers are doing well.

Hi all,

Perfect tank.

In the middle at the surface under the diagonal Anubias leaf. 🙂

Very beautiful tank!...

 

[Kezzab]

High praise! Cheers

Such a great tank for a puffer. Lots of natural hunting to witness amongst the tangle of roots etc.
You could add some Gammarus shrimp this this scape, and you an watch the puffer chase them down. Very cheap and easy to culture and grow.

Agreed, it looks like puffers would feel very comfortable in there 😀

I hacked this back a couple of months ago as it was getting overgrown. Still going strong. Barely do anything with it. Monthly water change, feed fish, that's it.

I love this tank 🙂

Anubias has gone a bit mad.

Hi all,

Anubias has gone a bit mad.

My guess is that it is a Spathiphyllum? The plant in the bottom left hand corner of the photo looks like an Anubias.

Aha, they are the same plant!

Hi all,

Aha, they are the same plant!

Damn, just when I thought I was on a roll the truth comes and bites me on the bottom, but wait......

If I can mobilise my base we can stop this plant ID steal. I didn't have an independent person at the ID, I can tell you that @Kezzab is a friend of Venezuelan socialists, and funded by George Soros Farmer, alternative facts say that they are two different plants and I'm not a loser.

Demand a recount Darrel!

 

[Kezzab]

There were independent observers who had full access. Deal with it.

Just noticed I'm past the 3 year mark with this tank!
Sadly one of the puffers died last month. Old age I think, had them 4 years.

Tank is crazy overgrown, piles of mulm, swimming space slowly being filled by roots. Succession in action.

Nice antidote to all the high tech fretting on the other tanks.
