This is a rescape of my 12 gallon that was once a nano reef. After lots of vinegar and elbow grease to remove the coralline algae, I started this tank using DSM with aquasoil. Its starting to come together now. Any suggestions or hints appreciated.

Very nice. You just need to cut those stems that are touching the surface and replant the tops and thicken the bunches up.

Thanks. Yeah I will need to trim it up.

First tank I have actually gotten real good growth with the foreground plants and good color. Also the first tank with aqua soil, might be a connection. Lighting is only 24W CF, so its not high lighting. Pressurized CO2 is much easier to control in a small tank, that might be part of it as well.
