heh.. Robert, I don't think you could pay me enough to plant a "big" tank! I actually planted this one over the course of a week, and it still managed to take a toll on my back.

I'm half tempted to do a plains tank in my 75G, after all the troubles I've been having with it lately. That's another story tho!

I was afraid of that... :oops: But it is a nice tank anyway.

Here's an updated picture. It could have done a better trim, but it's definitely grown in quite a bit since the last one. Feel free to comment/critique. :-)

That's my apisto panduro male. The female has a cave right below where the male is. Four of their babies are now 1"-1.5" long, and also in the tank, although finding them in the grass is tough!

Nice, hairgrass should be a big seller for the nanotank contest. Are you going to be bringing hairgrass to the next meeting? Oh wait, it's at YOUR house isn't it? :lol:

I wish I could be like Mr. Sarcastic when I grow up! ;)

Heh. Think I'll have any to spare? Considering this tank was replanted only 2 months ago, it's safe to say that this stuff grows like wildflowers... (maybe faster)
