Destruction of a Tank

The aquarium was doing fairly well over Christmas break and the Hygrophilia was exploding. Unfortunately I went away for 5 days to Michigan and when I came back everything was dying. The val that I replanted into the front left is essentially dead. The Hygrophilia was almost completely dead, and everything else was struggling. Oddly enough the Java Fern and Dwarf Anubias was thriving and bigger than ever.

So I ripped everything that is dying out and the tank looks rather bare. I will update with pictures later this week once the water and plant remains settle down and I remove some more decaying matter.
