Thank you! It’s probably my favorite setup right now.

No removals yet, but I have seen the gouramis go after the baby snails. No shrimp babies yet.

Goodness thank you 🙏 what an ego boost

The light is actually just mounted on the bottom side of a shelf above the aquarium, so that I wouldn’t have to figure out a riser long enough for the terrestrial plants. To some extent I agree that many modern lights are very bright and often hung low. I think for an extremely high tech tank or really really demanding plants… they might be necessary but I don’t have enough experience on that side of aquarium keeping to know for sure. I’m using the Marina S10 filter (claims it’s for up to 10 gallons and this tank is only 6.8) I found on Amazon. I have zero filter media in it, and instead have the scindapsus and philodendron in there to help with mechanical filtration. I’m running the filter at about half “flow” adjustment, which is enough to keep any biofilm forming on the water surface and not enough to cause any stress to the fauna.

Thank you 🙏

Thanks very much! It was my 3rd aquascape and I really wanted to accent some kind of shape while playing off of it with the crypts. Turned out better than I had actually imagined.

NICREW c10 24/7 LED, left the lighting options stock. It’s far away enough that it doesn’t cause any issues with algae at all.

My 8 month old tank is also pygmy cories, CRS, and had some red cherries too, what are the odds?

Thanks! I might put some isopods in them, but I’m trying to identify a type that won’t just go wild and eat the live plants. I have dairy cows already and they have obliterated everything in their tank despite plenty of nonlive things to eat.

Oberon, with or without augments, largely feels outclassed by many frames when it comes to doing a specific type of thing like healing or nuking, but still is a fun well rounded Warframe I still love.

I do think he needs a rework though.
