Ok an update.

Catastrophy midweek while i was at work, One of the bits of wood started to get covered with slime and mould

so, two 50% waterchanges later and 3 days of boiling and bleeching wood (again) and we are back up and running.

Friday (today) plants from Java Plant arrive

So here is a piccy 10mins after i finished with the plants .

Glad you got the wood sorted. Tank looks really good and is going to be much better when the plants all grow, will fill in nicely.
PS. Cool to see an update

Thanks guys,

I was gutted when the fungus appears as was my mrs and the kids. Thankfully it seems to have been sorted now. Just got a bit of rainbow rock to put in the gap to the left and thatll be it for now, until i can see the plants growing in and then ill prob pick and choose what to keep etc.
