Dennerle Scaper's Tank Specs sufficient?

[Jaap]

Hello,

Conserning the Dennerle Scaper's tank:

1. Is the light sufficient for growing most plants?
2. Is the filter (360L/h) good enough for sufficient flow that will deliver CO2 to all plants in tank?
3. Any other concerns regarding the tank?

Cheers

All should be fine pal, what are the lights? 11w?

And filter will gas off a bit of co2 if it's a waterfall type HOB. If it's submerged it should be better for retaining co2.

The light might be your only problem, 24 w is alot over a shallow 50l tank you will have to have spot on co2 etc I think the filter might be a bit weak so you would have to consider where you place rocks etc so not to restrict flow to much but all in all I think there brilliant tanks and very nearly bought one

Oh didn't realise the light was that intensive. Just start with small photoperiod and increase slowly and you'll be right.

Dosing co2 and Liquid carbon will help.

Here's the tank kit Nath.

OK so this means that its not such a good option for a nano tank? I like it because it is 50L and big enough to give you room for a nice aquascape especially for me who I am a beginner but if I will have problems then I should look up another option...
