As promised I will start a journal of my journey of my new aquarium posting pictures as it evolves and I doubt asking advice!
Equipment -
Aquarium - 120cm X 45cm x 45cm optiwhite aquarium with gloss white stand from Abyss, Stockport.
Filtration - 2 Eheim pro 3 2075 with co2 art glass inley and APF glass rear outlet linked up to 2 Diy acrylic spray bars.
Lighting - 2 Ecotech Radion Xr15 freshwater on RMS tank mounts...had to use the rimmed tank spacer to allow my spray bar to pass through the gap. So will have to work out hole spacing and make sure I don't drill where the bar is behind the mount!
Heater - Hydor 300w inline heater
Co2 - 2kg fE going to be linked up to a CO2 art pro reg then into 2 Up inline diffuser.
Substrate - ADA amazonian aquasoil
Rocks - unsure what they are, anyone at idea?
Wood - redmoor root.
As the light mount is in the way of the spray bar it means that the spray bar is very near the top of the aquarium, about 30mm to bottom of tube. will this cause any issue? Can't see causing any if I point it on a slight angle.
Not decided on what plants and fish to keep yet but thinking of a carpet plant around most of the foreground.
Looking forward to seeing the progress.
As it is today.
