just a low tech freshwater tank with sand and a chunk of malaysian driftwood taking up most of the space. celestial pearl danios move through the vals in a loose group, blue bolt shrimp pick through the java moss without much concern for anything else happening around them. cooling fan runs most of the summer to keep temps sane. it's been a steady one, no real drama, just sand, wood, and everybody doing their own thing in it.

moss has filled in most of the wood now, vals are tall enough to sway when the filter kicks on. danios school together more than i expected for how small the group is. still a bit of open sand up front but it's getting there.

quiet stretch
work's been eating my whole week so the tank basically ran itself. topped off evaporation, glanced at the shrimp, that's about it. moss is filling in on its own at this point which is nice because i haven't touched it in ages. feels a little neglected honestly but everyone still looks fine.
Fluval plant 3.0 over 20 gallons of freshwater seems like itd get patchy in the corners eventually, are your celestial pearl danios hanging out under the shadows or ignoring it completely
Tank owner replied
they mostly ignore the shaded spots, spend more time out in the open water column or hovering near the moss. haven't noticed them avoiding light at all, they're out and about most of the day.
