Castaway

I added a black background to the tank and thought I would take some final shots before I moved the fry to the main tank. They are now 6 weeks old and will go into the main tank to continue their growth.
That will leave just the shrimp and snails in this tank.

I'd let this tank go again. I have been putting offcuts and all sorts into this tank and as you can see in the first picture below there was some Cryptpcoryne Spiralis which was getting burnt on the lights. This stuff grows 60cm tall in my larger tank. lol
So I put a little effort in and took out all the monsters. I also removed some of the larger Anubias and then decided to add some HC instead of the scruffy Riccia and moss stones. No fully finished pictures because the water was really cloudy.

Some more changes. This current plant arrangement is now 5 weeks or so old. I did however remove another of the larger anubias. I'm going just with the 'petite' variety here with 1 large one that seems to give off smaller leaves.
The background has been ditched. I'm very much in favour of the clear background again at the moment. Just so much more full of life.
One little development is you may see the tiny 'sponge filter' in there. My Boyu external is out of action now. The O ring was stretched and then snapped. I let it struggle on with PTFE tape sealing it and it did work but was very noisy. I have a Resun filter similar to the Boyu on its way.
