Flow is good, best lighting you can get, (i think) and water is straight right now.

It's very nice.....might be a little too close to the PH though

 

[bw256s_srt4]

You think so? I really dont want to put it in the middle of my tank and cause a shaddy spot, thats why i put it on the side.

 

[bw256s_srt4]

Here are some side picks.

The PH doesn't look quite as close in these pics....

 

[bw256s_srt4]

Well if it ends up getting too much flow, you can always reposition the PH

 

[bw256s_srt4]

Yeah, thats true. Its really not getting that much flow right now because of the PH is at the side of the monti.

nice red monti. with proper flow, it shoudl take off and triple in size within 1 year.

Yep, once they start to grow, there seems to be no stopping them!
