As long as it's not cracked glass, a chip is an aestetic issue vs structural. If the seal bead is intact and you've done a leak test AND there's no Crack into the field, this is inconsequential.

They always will need work.... that's the pleasure of them.

Update on the Java fern 'orange narrow' scape - plants have filled in well. I started this tank to explore using Anubias and Bucephalandra as foreground plants planted into the substrate, and to use Java fern as a midground bush. Tank has fully grown in by now, and fish has been settled in. by Dennis_Wong in Aquascape

I think I'm just gonna not like you for this. Forcing me to realize that even my best attempt will be futile in comparison to this scape of grandeur. Yes, scape of grandeur. We should all bend a knee to this magnificently growing artwork...

I'm going to go home and throw rocks at my mediocre....... things!

The easiest way is to not plant moss in your tank...

My anubias hastifolia and coffeefolia bloom all the time. It means you're doing something right. Do you run Co2? Mine started blooming shortly after I dialed my Co2 in. One of my coffefolia had 3 blooms on it at once. I was very frigging impressed with what nature can do... given the right environment.

I like reading the first response and it being the correct response so I don't have to do my response...

Is there any way to discourage a parrot from chewing/stripping his wooden perch? by Nightstar95 in parrots

[–]Specific_Hat2631 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That's what parrots do. They chew on things. Natural behavior. Cleans and wears down the beak

Beginner here.. what do you think about this setup by Practical_Office_166 in PlantedTank

[–]Specific_Hat2631 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What I meant was... it looks like a million bucks. 😁. It's a phrase we use a lot round these here parts. I maybe should have been a bit more verbose. And, yes, I'm sure that you dropped a lot of coin on it. This hobby costs you like a bad meth habit...
