Hi,

Thank you for looking. Really appreciated all comments/critiques etc..

Update

I came back from out of city job, a few days before Chinese New Year, only to find some BBA came visit this tank!..lol..in the hurry to go out of the city, I didn't realize that my CO2 tank is empty!..sysshh..unable to come back for at least 3 days. On the same weekend, Ruslan and Burt came visit..lol..this is always happened to me...when friends comes visit..there is always something wrong with this tank..hahhaha. Anyway, not to panic though, the BBA just in the early stage, not too rampant .

Soooo what I did was :
1. 'Big' trim. Remove almost all affected leaves, trim the mosses, throw away some of the plants i.e Ludwigia etc.
2. Plant more Glosso at the foreground, some Blyxa japonica at the base of newly added driftwood.
3. Suck any debris, mulm etc.
3. Do 50% WC.
4. Do a Flourish Excel spot treatment.
5. Add 8 Yamato shrimps (I wish I bought more) and a young SAE.
6. Dose half than usual.
7. CO2 as usual, 4-5 bps

Now
