Lookin good. Looks like a 2 month old tank. No worries cause stuff is growing.

Yep. Pretty ugly (oxymoron). Looks like time for a CUC. Looking good.

That clean sand bed would beg to differ! My goodness but I saw some horrific things in my tank at this stage, yours looks so neat and tidy

 

[mta_morrow]

Everything looks great and pretty much how mine did at startup. Green rocks are good!

I didn’t go thru the uglies.

 

[bjc451]

I have done 3 water changes post cycle and rinsed very well the sand and still syphon a ton of stuff
