looking good
Carpet's almost fully in, sword's got some size on it now, shrimp are everywhere. Genuinely happy with how this one turned out for a 5 gallon.

Cat sits and watches the endlers for way longer than she should, seiryu stone and moss carpet, cherry shrimp everywhere.

Finally put the AI Prime 16HD on this thing, old light was cheap and dim and the monte carlo was clearly not happy about it. Should've upgraded months ago honestly, my bad.

that pinnatifida colouring up nicely on hardscape or just in substrate? tempted to try one in my own tank
Mostly on the stone, mounted it to the rock and it's redding up nice under the prime. Bit in the substrate stayed more green tbh. Worth a shot, just give it time
That seiryu stone in a CO2 tank makes me nervous for GH creep. Are you cutting your water with RO at all?
No co2 on this one, low tech. Seiryu still leaches a bit but with weekly water changes it hasn't been an issue so far, not tracking gh closely tbh
Endler colors look great against that hardscape, ngl. Is that tannin tint from the wood or are you dosing something?
No tint, that's just the prime picking up their color. No wood in this one, just seiryu
Seiryu stone right? Curious how it's affecting your pH with no CO2 issues in a tank that small, or are you not seeing any buffering at all
