    lastnight's computer was not working correctly.

    hopefully this is a better picture. I changed to a 50/50 coralite bulb. looks much better at night.

    the catfish is always hiding. the new plants are dwarf sword grass, just added more grass to the left. and the small plants to the right front are new.

    here is a new plant I added today, front middle.

    what kind of lighting is this? Flourescent? If so, I think you may need to plan on more lighting. I use to use a 50/50 corallife bulb for my planted and I couldnt keep anything alive except low light plants. You may need more light for that hairgrass/others.

    Upside down catfish thats always hiding from my pictures. I use 50/50 for about 13 hours per day. It seems to be doing fine after a few weeks with the extra lighting. It is getting fed with fertilizer and co2 as well. If things start to change, I will retract back to the daylight bulb.
