E.tenellus is nice if you just keep fishes. They grew like crazy and sometimes overlapped each other until my shrimps also get "trapped" inside.... If you want to clear the foreground, it is very easy, just cut the stems joining each E.tenellus and slowly pull out one by one at its root. Soon your foreground will be bare again but, like I said, E.tenellus grew very fast. Another method is to trim its head so that the leaves will not appear so tall to cover up your other flora if that is why you were afraid of.

When you said 422 you mean 4ft by 2 by 2? If so, I have learned something new that a fan can keep such size at temp 27 - 28. In the past, I thought fan only good for 1 to 2 feet tank.

Thanks for the update! The altums really look great there. Have to admit though, I still like the original high-tech version!

Thanks bro! i do prefer the high-tech version too since this scape is originally designed for that but due to laziness and busy life, had to change to low-tech.
