36gal Bow tank Redo
---------------------

Its been a while since I have posted pics on this tank. Its gone through some changes. The Kbar swords have out grown this tank. I was hoping that being a smaller sword plant they would be OK but not so. (bummer)

I finally have been able to get Rotala macrandra to grow. I started out with just 5 small stems around 5 months ago. This plant really adds color to a tank.

I have a Red Mellon sword in the back that has been around in just about all my tanks at one time or another. Is on a come back from algae and a melt down. At one time this sword reached the top of my 75gal. It has some new growth, we will just have to see if it takes off. As you see this tank is not balanced as far as plant growth goes. Most of the plants are mature plants but the small sword makes the tank look out of balance to the eye. Its going to be hard to keep the rest of the tank trimmed up while the Mellon swords catches up. I am thinking about replanting the hairgrass. It really needs it plus I need some to plant in my 75gal.
