I'm very excited to see how the glosso fills in!

Looks great! Go with Ember tetras, smaller so bigger group, decent schooling.

What is the water change frequency during the dry start?

[DeanR]

Great video, is this same dimentioms ada ADA 60P thanks

Amazing iwagumi. Black neons are so classic but i think kubotai rasboras or a bird like fish such as threadfish raindows or blue/red eye rainbowfish could look good too!

How did you avoid the soil from rolling to the front?

Hi Logan. great job. I have a 90P and also went through a dark start (also based on your videos). a few days ago I planted in vitro plants and also started CO2. I have an ADA Amazonia II in the aquarium and the question is when to start fertilizing the plants? What's your opinion? thank you for your support.

Nice one Logan.. qq, any reason you went for J Repens instead of Eleocharis montevidensis?

[Ankescapes]

I woult go with Sundandanio Axelrodi or the Black Neons. Kubotais like to swim in open spaces, too, but there would be no contrast to the green of the plants.
