Planted tank maintenance is not an easy job sometimes. Would you dare to touch an aquascape built by the World Champion Josh Sim? What if you had no choice but to tweak it a little? This is not the time for trembling hands, but careful planning needed before the big maintenance session on the Planted Tank Legends series aquascape - "Congo". Three months have passed by since the build of this aquascape; it has been a bit overgrown. In this video, we're taking it back to the roots, to the original concept of the double IAPLC winner.
