Planted Cube journey on my Co-opiversary

On this day last year we bought my wife a cube aquarium, light and everything needed for a planted tank to house her Betta and some frogs. It was my first trip to Aquarium Coop!  I set up the tank and she enjoyed it for a few months, but I was becoming  more and more intrigued. I didn’t plan on taking over her hobby but, Cory and Irene’s channels were binged, more tanks were acquired and I was hooked! 
 

Some pics of the cube as it’s evolved over time. The current stocking includes Chili Rasboras, Pygmy Corydoras, Otocinclus, Cherry Shrimp, Amano Shrimp and the remains of a school of Rummy nose that we’re bought as juveniles and introduced to this tank when it still had frogs. 

The Crypt Parva has grown exactly .00001 mm in ten months.
