This will be my second attempt at a nano 'aquascape', my first attempt started off quite well but suffered when I moved house, it's still recovering at the moment. Here's what it looked like before I moved:
I was just going to grow some HC in a flat bed of Aquasoil to replace the HC that died when I moved, but I had some rocks laying around and thought I might as well use them.
Bored out of my brain at work, I started looking through some pictures of other aquascapes trying to find a bit of inspiration. I started drawing some ideas down and settled on this one:
Got everything ordered, took me about 15 minutes to get it how I imagined it:
Added the HC, could possibly use another pot or 2, will get some more in a few days.
This tank has a separate compartment for a filter system at the back, I took all the media out and filled it with water and added a heater to help with the humidity. Also added water to main part of the tank, just below the substrate and gave it a few mists to get things going:
Seems to be working quite well, temp inside the tank is around 30C, don't have a Hygrometer yet but humidity should be sufficient:
All done! Will post back in a week!
