a coworker was rehoming a 10g and I said sure, figured it'd be simple (it was NOT). grew into four tanks somehow and I still count the corydoras like pets, not livestock

First attempt at the hardscape here was wrong in every way — wood too big, soil too shallow, and the whole thing looked cramped before I even added water. Redid it with Controsoil and smaller pieces, much happier now. Celestial pearl danios crowd the vallisneria most evenings, blue rilis picking through the bucephalandra. Small tank (3 gallons), keeps the Inkbird busy holding temp steady.

Sunset Haven got its name before there was even water in it — the stratum has this warm reddish cast under the Kessil that reminded me of one, and it stuck. Hairgrass has finally filled in up front, hygrophila needs trimming again already. Pygmy corys spend most of the day darting through the sword leaves. 29 gallons, though it feels smaller with the moss taking over the wood.
