The UNS 5S is starting to come together. The emersed plants have settled in well, and I’m really enjoying the contrast between the driftwood, moss, and the soft texture of the fern canopy. It’s a small setup, but there’s something relaxing about watching it slowly mature and fill in over time.
One thing I’m still undecided on is the duckweed. Part of me likes the natural look it gives the water surface, but I also enjoy having a clear view into the tank and letting more light through.
What do you think—should I keep the duckweed or remove it? 🌿
