My Moss balls are doing great. Not sure if that counts, but they're the only thing I haven't killed yet. Baby steps, right?

I got some Hornwort and it's growing like mad. It's kinda messy, but the fish seem to dig it. Plus, it's helping with nitrates.

I've had the same experience. Swords are beasts once they get going. What ferts are you using?

I've been using Seachem Flourish for my swords, and they're loving it. It's a bit pricey, but worth it for the growth I'm seeing.

My Ludwigia Repens turned bright red under high light. It's such a vibe. I didn't even know it could do that when I bought it.

I've been experimenting with Rotala Indica. It's a slow grower for me, but the color is stunning. Anyone else have tips for this one?
