Re: Galaxy paradise (宇宙天堂)

I choose the scape of part 3. :p (in RL it has more depth, i must say the look on the photo is a bit flat) But i guess you guys want to see the photos ;)

First of all this one

k enough jokes. time to see some plants.

First thing was placing the javamoss on some roots. Very easy and the result is always nice.

Re: Galaxy paradise (宇宙天堂)

thx again :thumbup:

time for a small update. Not the best looking photos (still learning how to show the tank photos like the tank is in real life)


Added some more plants as you can see in the background . ;) And there are way more galaxys now. i guess +20. And there are growing fast :D Also bought some new Botia sidthimunki. They are now with 7 instead of 3. much better. If i can't find them they are playing hide and seek between the stones and plants. very nice to see. And i bought some japonicas. 6 of them. they can eat the little algae :p very weird but i have the idea the left side of the tank is growing faster :rolleyes:

Couple of photos from the tank now:

Very nice indeed :) you have to give me the secret ingredient for the super growth :p lol

k a small secret ;) here it comes:

After some looking around for a better CO2 solution I saw the Aqua Medic Reactor 1000. I heard from several people that this is one of the best ways to add CO2. Also you have less technic inside the tank. So time to buy one and mount it inside the cabinet.

In the box are several components to assemble the reactor. 1 option is to hang the reactor on the edge of your tank. the second option is to screw it inside the cabinet. looking much better and a bit easier to connect it to the filter (eheim 2217).

A TIP: On the vent valve i also connected an air tube. Found out when I wanted to remove the false air sometimes i was to late when closing it. result, water spraying inside your cabinet. now with the air tube on it the problem is fixed. when you are to late with closing the valve the water will go inside the tube instead of your cabinet (you can hang the tube inside a bucket)
