Well I got those pictures, using my housemate's camera, but his cord wasn't around so I was unable to pull the pics off of the camera.
In other news, I had a crash in my stargrass and some java fern- I think it was a mix of poor diffusion of CO2 and lack of nitrates. I think I have fixed the problem though, so all is well. I have lost 5 of my 15 silver-tips though, and that makes me irritated. But the same thing happened to my neons way back a year ago when I got them. I would have them die off over a month or so then I would have some stay, then I would buy more and bring my school up to the number I wanted.
My riccia and vals are growing so well I have begun selling them, and my auctions are linked in my signature
. I have had pretty good success so far

Also, the few guppy fry that were left in the tank when I took the adults to the LFS when I started this tank have grown immensely- it is amazing how much of a difference a crowded tank makes on their growth rates and colouring.
