Wow, totally gobsmacked! Even more so as there were some great looking tanks this month. Thank you all.

It’s a shame but I’m about to rescape it as it’s grown from a Fluval 80L, to a Fluval 125L before being moved again into the 200L so I feel a change is needed after five years of the same setup and plants.

The crypts and anubias were posted off to their new owners this morning but will live on through the forum and hopefully some photos. [emoji1303]

Guess I will have to do a proper write up later now then?!!
