    Nice 4 gallon too and beautiful stand. I used to have a six gallon. It never looked as nice as yours though! How often do you prune your plants?

    Eliziario, I never, ever wanted or thought I wanted a fresh water tank....that all may have just changed! I am into plants (they are all over the house) and I take pride in my gardens so a transition to a planted fresh water tank may be in the offing. Maybe if I get tired of my Biocube I will convert it. You did a marvelous job!

    I prune the plants, whenever a branch is with fast growth. that takes on average from 4 to 5 days. Me until I had to change plants from the assembly because the growth becomes, for some of them very aggressive.
    Now that I put Co2, the glossostigma are also growing and the another shoot in the growth. It is time already to prune again.

    Don't get tired of the aquarium to set up other.
    The costs to set up a small one are very low.
    Then it is worth more you to set up a small one and to maintain the other aquarium, because later you can discover that it liked the other a lot.
    And maintaining the two, you will have time to feel really wants to change.
    I know a lot of people that disassembled an aquarium to set up other and later the regret came. And they saw that they could have maintained the two.
