Java fern and bucephalandra tied to the wood, moss filling in around the base, guppies and rummynose keep it busy

quiet week

Been busy with work so barely touched this tank, just fed and glanced at it, plants are filling out though even without me doing much

Note

first fish are in

Added the guppies today, let the bag sit a bit then slowly added tank water in before letting them go, they scattered into the plants right away

Is the Oase keeping up with flow in there, been eyeing that same filter for a similar size.

Shrimp tank that turned into a guppy and rummynose situation, love how that escalated

MMason ThompsonQuestion

Where did you source the wood for that one? Bucephalandra looks like its mounted right on it

Tank owner replied

Honestly just grabbed it at the LFS, no fancy sourcing story, the buce was already glued on when I bought the piece

this is the guppy/shrimp mix i keep going back and forth on for my next build

How are you keeping the java moss from taking over the bucephalandra? Mine always wants to grab onto everything nearby haha
