How's the dragon stone treating your water params? Wondering if it messes with GH at all, or if you cut with RO to keep it stable

That halfmoon's fins look great next to the java fern. How's the blue bolt shrimp holding up with a betta in there?

Spiderwood in a shrimp tank that small, does it leach much tannin or did it cure before going in?

Your six line wrasse must love that dragon stone to dart through. Curious if you're running an inline diffuser for co2 or something else, or did I misread the setup

Cardinal tetras look really at home in there - how long did it take the rotala to fill back in after your last trim?

Any shadowing back in the corners with that fixture or does it spread out enough at that depth?

Controsoil plus no CO2 and your rotala still looks that red? Kind of surprised, mine leggy under similar light

Apistos are so underrated, love the color on them. What CO2 bps you running with the stratum?

The hygrophila pinnatifida is looking really full, no CO2 too. What's your fert routine on this one?

Cave layers look good on that stone - how's the hammer doing that close to the chalice, any sweeper issues?

Endlers and cherry shrimp in the same 29 gallons sounds like chaos in the best way, are the shrimp holding their own against the fry?

Does the spiderwood keep the shrimp busy grazing on it? Curious how much bioload that many corys add before you notice water quality dipping between changes.

Second scape looking clean, what params you running with that amazonia this deep into it?

How's the WRGB handling that depth, any shadow spots with the seiryu piled up like that?

The layering in there looks solid, kind of jealous of that rockwork. What's the flow like with the six lines darting through it, do they ever knock stuff loose?

Dragon stone with monte carlo carpet holding a year later is no joke, dry start or straight flood on that?

Do you cap the amazonia at all or just let the apistos dig through it? Mine turn everything into a crater eventually

Params holding steady for you? That apisto and bolt shrimp combo is a fun mix, curious how the shrimp numbers are doing

that pinnatifida colouring up nicely on hardscape or just in substrate? tempted to try one in my own tank

Started as a shrimp tank and turned into a full reef, love that. Is the goniopora new or did it survive the whole transition?

Running CO2 on a sponge filter setup, that's interesting. Inline diffuser or just letting it disperse in-tank?

Hold on no CO2 in a 40 with sword and rotala growing like that? Color on the rotala looks great for low tech, what light schedule you running
