Hey there.
I was pretty much grown in a home, full of aquariums until my mom told my dad to get rid of them, hence my memories from that time were based only on pictures and stories. So at being around 30 y.o. I've decided, that I should have a micro-pond inside my house. At first, started with an old 63ltr low-tech setup just to see how it goes etc (will add pics in a separate post of my journey). After around a year of having a test-polygon I've decided it's time to have my first planted-aquascaped-mid/high-tech aquarium.
So about 4 months ago I've decided to have a 60x60x40h cm OW cube, that would be sitting in the corner of the room.
TL;TR, so I'll make it short as much as it is possible.
Glass: 60x60x40h cm OW 8mm thick cube;
Soil: a full system from Cal Aqua Labs;
Light: two Chihiros Aquasky laps that I've got from a lovely lady and aquascaper Jurga;
Filter: Oase Biomaster Thermo 350 with glass lily-pipe outlet and glass inlet w/ skimmer;
CO2: going through in-line reactor of SERA;
Ferts: my aquariums were always powered by VIMI ferts, made in Lithuania.
At first got the aquarium:
Place was prepared for it
Getting the glass prepared
After two days - first fitting:
Got some stuff for getting it done:
Since I already had a running aquarium, my fish had a place to stay, untill new house was going through two-weeks DSM. So this is a first sneak-peak pic I've shared with Lithuanian aquascapers
