Hellos everyone well it's time to start a new journal another Ada 60p lol as many of you know I had a Ada 60f and didn't have much luck but hopefully more luck with this, I really like the height and size of this one, so hopefully turns out good, sure with everyone help and advice will work out well, still many questions but will post as go along, currently working 12 hour shifts so only get chance to work on this on days off and starting my shifts tomorro so won't be up and running for few weeks but here is a start
cabinet DIY ada style build on here http://www.ukaps.org/forum/threads/diy-ada-style-aquarium-stand.31348/
Tank ada 60p
Filter eheim 2424 (one of my questions was what you think about this filter only 700lph ? You think will be sufficient)
Lighting currently 2x24w Hagen glo but thinking about aqua ray grobeam 600 twin
Co2 an in tank diffuser
Ei dosing
Anyway here is a layout I was messing with not had much time at all but here it is want to keep simple and have an open space for carpet etc want long red an green stems and repens on the left, still not sure on carpet maybe Monte Carlo or mini hair grass
This is how packed the substrate rather than using rights and gravel just to make lighter I used plastic piping
I tried to slope substrate maybe add more slope to left and stick with the rules of thirds etc any help and comments welcome also as for plants still not sure apart from repens and a nice Monte Carlo or hair grass carpet want to keep simple with 3-5 plant types. As said suggestions and comments welcome
Thanks Dean
