29g Planted Tank lotech after 1 year

[drukus]

Here is my tank (thanks in large part to this group!) after 1 year. Please excuse the poor quality of the picture. I hope to get some better ones soon.

The stocklist is:
10 Pristella Tetras
5 Peppered Corys
2 Guppies
1 Krib.
Ramshorn Snails
MTS

The water is liquid rock (GH off the charts). Water params are rock steady and very low.
I have not done any water changes (just bimonthly top ups).
I have two T5 bulbs and I dose with liquid carbon in spurts.

Currently, I am going for the wild overgrown look and experimenting with creating the most low maintenance tank I can possibly create.

Nice tank. Good to see what can be done without going hi-tech...

Yes, nice setup. In my experience crytps respond well, like yours have, to harder alkalinity & stable water conditions.
