A freshwater moment

[mangrove_man]

Hopefully this is acceptable content! Thanks to some tannin-rich catappa bark, I have finally achieved the golden tint that I’ve been striving for. It contrasts soo nicely with the cooler colors from its saltwater sibling around the corner

It's definitely... golden.

Oooh somebody’s not on board with blackwater

Should’ve realized how reefers would react to water that isn’t crystal clear

It looks beautiful! I'm not a freshwater keeper but I understand how difficult it is to balance tannins and other things like that. This is what I'd strive for if I ever set up a freshwater tank!

Nice scape. I am not super into black water for my own fresh water tanks, but I appreciate the biotope look you are going for.

Black water tanks are cool. I used to have a 5 gallon with a pair of wild bettas.

Think it could use more wood. The current piece doesn’t fill the space well.
