    Now we're talking! That looks GREAT! filling in real nice... I shall look forward to more pics, Rickus! oh yeah, and am way jealous of the sae's I spy in there -are they doing a good job? I'm getting some otos next week - hope the little fellas handle the bba I'm quietly battling. I tried the excel nuking, which kinda worked - in a backwards way - by melting the crypts on which it had anchored. :cry: not quite what I anticipated!!! he he! the fight goes on....

    The SAE's and the Ancistrus are doing a great job. ( I take the rocks from my malawi setup that is full of algae, and put it in the planted Jebo. They clean a rock in less than a day )

    Started to use DIY co2 - will see if it works.
    if not, I will buy some excell at the Expo, because the LPS in the Freestate dont have Seachem products.

    Busy saving for CO2 system, but that is on hold, because of the baby thats on the way...

    Grats to you guys! That's a great piece of news!

    and no *insert wicked cackle* - so far as I know, babies and CO2 aren't really compatible!!!!

    lovely tank... with some good growth, if it was not for your ambitions with the hair-grass this would be an easy tank to keep as a very low tech tank. Now that the grow-in has happened it can be put into low maintenance mode.

    your java fern on the left looks very happy

    good job!!!
