    I like the rock formation. What made you tear the tank down? It looked really good

    It did not look like that when I came back from holiday.
    I think the java moss liked the loadshedding more than the glossostigma so the the tank ended up as basically one big ball of moss. On top of that I had some wild/mixed shrimp in the tank and I'm planning on putting black chock shrimp or yellow shrimp in the tank so I don't want a pure strain to mix. Let's hope this scape turns out even better.

    Ahhh the joys of returning from vacation. I know this struggle all too well.

    I'm sure you will get great results. Now just to play the dreaded waiting game

    It's been a while so just a quick update. I found the most beautiful Red Rili shrimp at Art of Aqua last week so I had to do some musical chairs to make space for them. In the process I re-scaped a tank specifically for them.
