Great tank! Can’t wait to see the finished product!
With the skulls, that would make a neat post apocalyptic piranha tank (just sayin

Not much has changed.
Sorry about taking so long, I've been a bit under the weather.
I added my first dose of plant fertilizer today. Ignore the net and the basket. I got some baby plecos in and put them in the basket for a temporary holding spot and the basket broke and they all escaped. I'm still trying to round them up. I'd let them stay, but they're too small atm and my filter already sucked one up. Thankfully it survived and is doing fine.
Also, mandatory baby pleco pic ?
Getting some new growth on the moss I thought I accidentally murdered. Super excited!!!
Got a baby synodontis eupterus catfish into the tank as well. Unfortunately, the little guy vanished into the rock pile before I could get a picture of it. My daughter has named it Sprinkles.
Came up with a decent idea on how to cover the pvc pipes as well. I'm going to slide some fake logs around them to make them look kind of like trees.
As for the back ground, I've decided to paint a shot from the underwater park in Austria. Just need to get some canvas.
Hopefully this will start coming together soon ?

Another update:
Java moss is still growing, but taking it's time and the hornwort is looking a bit leggy, but has taken off. I guess the fertilizer was a good idea.
My single snail has turned into hundreds. I'm debating on leaving them for plant care, at least until the plants get a little more full.
Sprinkles the catfish is well. He's pretty shy, I've only seen him twice since adding him to the tank, but he's nearly doubled in size and is absolutely gorgeous. ?
I had to take apart the rock pile to get all of the pleco out of the tank, so it doesn't look quite right anymore, but I'll fix it eventually.
Other than that not much has changed. I had some health issues come up several weeks ago, and ended up having to have surgery last week, so I haven't been involved as much as I'd like to be. I have everything I need to finish up the tank lined up and ready to order, but I don't want to make that purchase until I get back to work and have a steady income again, so scaping is currently on hold.
I can't wait to get this little project moving again.
Hope everyone is doing well!
I'll post another update as soon as some changes are made.
Edit: I know I need to do a good vacuum on the bottom. I'll get to that asap. But for now, unfortunately, it'll have to wait ?

Yeah. I'm pretty happy with it.
The stuff in my daughter's tank all died. I got her a pair of blushing white skirt tetras that ended up having mouth rot (and I didn't quarantine like I should have) and the hornwort didn't like the treatment.
How's yours doing?
