Drat. I've already typed this out once and it was lost.
Okay.
Last night I had a dream I was aquascaping. When I woke up, I was inspired. After doing pwc's on every tank except the 55 (my water bill was $70 this month), I started yanking out the wisteria. I'm tired of it. It's great for cycling a tank and for getting started, especially if you've got low light. But I've got medium-high light, so it grows into a jungle. I've moved past wisteria. In Jerkface's tank I removed the narrow-leafed variety and left the wide-leafed one...
Meanwhile, the 55 looks pretty good. I ripped out the large-leafed wisteria, and moved the cabomba to the far left. I also took out the small melon sword I had on the far right, and I swapped it for the large anubias in the 6.6 that was growing out of the tank. Also, this morning, I took a large amount of Java moss out of the 29 and I spread it all over the driftwood on the far left. It was getting rowdy downstairs.
I continued my herbicide of the hygrophilia difformis downstairs in the 29. It was looking jungly and I want that tank to be well-mannered. I wish the cabomba on the left would stand up in a nice grove, rather than flopping over. I can't figure that out. Why does it do that?
Oh, and there's a panda.
Here is the melon sword that was in the 55g. I moved it to the 6.6 and gave it a root tab. Snelly Snail promptly sat on it, and I hope a little CO2 will beef it up.
The photo is blown out, but here's the 6.6, too. It needs something, but I don't care that much. In this tank I left the wide-leafed wisteria and removed the narrow-leafed variety, as I did in Jerkface's tank.
