hi guys after a bit of decorating in the house i decided to get a new tank. i wanted somthing abit smaller than my 200 litre roma easier to change water ect. i choose a tmc signature 60/45/30 which i will be scaping over the next few weeks
i was thinking of somthing pretty simple using just vallis or pogostemem stellatta in the far left corner with a light sand or gravel path moving towards the right. And a carpet of hairgrass and hc with little or no hardscape. going to pick up the substrate tomorrow, i did want to use ada amazonia but i can get a 9 litre bag of africana real cheap as its discontinued in my local shop
i will be using pressurised c02 probably via a ceramic diffuser i have been using a aquamedic 1000 reactor but i think this might be overkill on a smaller tank
i have a choice of 3 filters from my old tank i think i will go for a fluval 405. i have just ordered a set of lilly pipes from c02art they should arrive tomorrow they were pretty cheap but hopefully there a decent quality
i will be using a tmc grobeam 500 which i have suspended from the ceiling ive got someone fabricating me a cover/diffuser to stop the light spill
my livestock will be cardinal tetras and undecided on what shrimp yet
hopefully this will go smother than my recent efforts i have learnt alot from many mistakes!
