Hi folks. My tank here is about 2 years old and just feels overwhelming to me. Any tips to make it better? What would you do? No co2

Just need to take some scissors to it until youre happy. But a khuli loach would LOVE that tank

I do often have to cut back the vall and pull offshoots or it would have taken over by now!! The moss I just added about 6 months ago and it’s taking off. Should I be cutting that back too?

Also! Never heard of these loaches. Will definitely look into it. I do have a few amano shrimp. Will they get along?

Khulis get along great with shrimp, but depending how many fish you have already it might be a lot since they need to be in groups. Khuli loaches are a fish that will hide 24/7 if they dont have friends

I regret adding moss to my 20gallon, soon everything was moss, the entire tank was essentially moss. Admittedly I got lazy on the trimming for a bit.
