Haha, it's my dad's camera because the one I got several years ago mysterious stopped turning on and he pulled it apart (good with electronics he is) and even he couldn't figure out why. It's 9 years old, 2.1 megapixels and takes the best photos out of any camera I've ever had. Ugh! He's now pulled this one apart and is taking a look inside.
I think I'll save up and buy my own, that way if I drop it I don't have to admit it to anyone.
I say the tank looks awful because you can't see all the dead leaves floating around, and the bits of dead pink ambulia. There's also areas with sparse planting because I've had to pull some of the ambulia out to try and let more light in. I might leave a few healthy stems in once I decide on (and get!) the replacement plants, but the rest is going in the goldfish pond or garbage! Depends on whether or not the goldfish eat it.
Also with the tank looking nasty, I believe it's a potassium and magnesium deficiency causing holes and yellow leaves in my plants as well.
I LOVE my Blue Rams... ... shh, don't tell anyone, but I think they're quickly becoming my favourite fish! ... Any time I'm doing anything in the tank they're right up in my business, nosing around and actually watching very carefully what I'm doing. A few times I've gone to do something on the bottom and they've gotten upset at me being too close to one of their 'nests' (ditches in the gravel, quite annoying actually!) and outright rammed my hand and bitten me. It's hilarious. I wish I could get them to do it to unsuspecting victims. I just need to find an excuse to get someone to put their hand in the tank.
The 2nd pic is my favourite too, Gulp. He's just so adorable! Bigger pic here if you want a bit of a better look.

Oops, Divy posted while I was typing, haha.
I do have some HC in there (got it for free, BOOYAH!) it's just sort of on a test run at the moment because I don't have co2 running ATM (I ran out of sugar, LOL) and don't have what I would consider to be high lighting. It's the mess of stuff in front of the 'cave' driftwood. Extremely hard to plant! I just did what the guy told me and dumped gravel on it and left it to grow roots it's self. If it takes off, I'll probably end up buying more.
As for Japanese hairgrass and Glosso, I'm not sure where I'd find it? I haven't seen any for sale on my usual sites. Do you know anywhere? You can PM me if you like.
