Loving My Grow Out Tank.

[Josh195]

I threw this tank together in a matter of minutes a few months ago to use as a grow-out tank for my guppies.
2 months in and I'm abosultly loving playing around with this tank.

I've used stargrass as a carpet plant - didn't have high hopes for it but it seems to be giving quite good coverage. I need to stay on top of the trimming however.

I've added some xmas moss on the side for the fry.. planning on removing it to carry on with the carpet.

Nthe background plant is ambulia. I've found this plant to be quite funny. Some stems are extremely compact with their growth while others are very spaced out. It doesn't seem to be them competing for light however?

Substrate is fluorite gravel leftovers from my main. The tanks lighting is 2x 18w tubes which seems to be quite mid-low lighting for this tank?

What are your guys thoughts? Cheers.

Thanks! The background plant is all ambulia (limnophila indica). I've also got that single stem in the back left which is hygrophila polysperma I believe
