Today I've done the first major pruning round since I redid my tank. The cambomba was really getting out of hand. Just about anything else is also growing, larger plants sprouting roots.
I'm not totally there yet, there's a few species in there that require more light than they're getting and I'm going to have to think about what can go to the center of the back wall. Oh, and I think I spotted a pregnant shrimp.
Here's a quick shot of it:

Almost, it's 70 liters so that's about 19 gallons.

You can still see too much backwall. That fake mountain you can see on the bottom is a bit too close to the back, I can't plant anything behind it.
Nice looking tank, well done!

My plants are getting out of hand, as well. Gez.....they must be 2 inches by now. LOL Seriously, tho, your tank is lovely. Your plants all look very healthy and I love your decorations, as well.

I've had questions about that before. I picked it up at a local shop. Grains about 1mm, not sure if it's artificial or not. Didn't have to do much rinsing even.
I think the plants are now really using the tetra substrate I but below that.
as it stands now it's not too bad for a tank that's been started in late february.
