Also, I noticed you used the plate while adding water, does that really work? I have a certain look I want for my tank and I want to aquascape while there isn't any water in the tank, but I'm worried about how much the sand will mix and so forth. I'm using two different kinds divided and don't want to mix them.

Just the stock lighting, its an aqueon 15 watt lights x2. The plate helps keep the sand still. But it kind of splashs upwards. Thanks for looking at my thread!!

Pretty good, they the anubias nana are almost constantly needing to be propogated. They're starting to grow algae on the leaves, soon im going to get half my school of neons (12) and probably 6 otos for algae eating.
