    That's what I call a forest! Sure do get some mad growth in there!

    Looking great, John. Still can't believe it takes so little work.

    Thank you, it really isn't that much different than reefing. Once you figure out what works you stick with it and it becomes a quick routine.

    Simply stunning John! If I ever attempt a large planted freshwater, it will be because of you. Very inspiring!

    It is a dry heat, yeah right !
    That is a fantastic image John!

    How often do you trim and what is the name of the small plants in front in the foreground?

    Do the fish you have in there ever spawn?
