Ofc! I do know the owner and know they have been quarantined for a few weeks 😌 usually I wouldn’t just dump them in!

I’ve had to lift the light up by turning the brackets around the other way, it’s way too powerful for such a shallow tank and I have a feeling it’s starting to burn the plants as they grow taller. I’ll see how it goes with the brackets round this way, if still no luck then back to the drawing board!

Sometimes I hate shallow tanks!!!!

Oh I also lost my favourite endler tonight, the cobra 😞

I'm going back to the drawing board with the lighting. This one is just too powerful for the depth of the tank! Guess I'll keep it for the another project :) Hopefully the new one will arrive in a couple of days so I can get to tinkering!
