Very nice tank. Have you thought of a black background. I think it would really bring everything together! Nice work!

Third picture, mass of six hornworts, I will trim and plant at some point, right now they are providing "insurance" on water quality. They will not stay there.

The second picture shows stand and the ADDITIONAL shimming that we used. Again, I am not installing door until we are set up and running. The filter and power station are inside stand

OK, first picture. Plants in for three days, 6 cherry barbs in for 24 hours. All still alive!!! Note extension cord wiring coming down door. This old house, so to speak. Trim and door not yet installed on stand, nor is background. Still a work in progress. Still a bit hazy, but getting better, heck, its just been a day.
