Has it REALLY been 2 months since I updated this? omg i'm a slacker. So in December I began adding dry ferts, and recently added some DIY co2. The plants are growing great, the fish are doing well, and I love how it all looks. So on with the pics. I'll try to go in order so you can see the progress.

December






January





So that about covers the progress over the past 2 months. It's amazing to see the progress since when I first added plants. Wow.
