Great tank, going to be tough keeping it pretty from that many angles though! Think this is going to be a good 'un. The lights are a bit blue for my liking but I'm sure it will look good when it's all done :D I'd agree with Chris above on the powerheads.

Maybe nothing, maybe it will deteriorate! Low tech plants like anubias grow slowly anyway so probably nothing for a while. Why not get some Cryptocorynes?

The second scape is good :D I like it. Word of advice though, the anubias doesn't like its Rhizome below the substrate.

Looking great mate ! :D

Re: An old photo - My old planted Biorb 105... Nice :) like the way you've hidden the tube with the bogwood. Looks healthy!

Re: a noob tank "RTFM" I would say, get a lot more plants, get rid of your rocks and just use the bogwood as a centre piece. Plant around it.

Re: a noob tank "RTFM" Needs more hardscape mate, those rocks look too small for a tank that shape and size. They'd look great like that in a japanese style Iwagumi tank, but what are you thinking in terms of planting ?

Re: 90x45x45 Optiwhite (not yet named) Opaque/frosted would look pretty nice Chris.

Re: 90x45x45 Optiwhite (not yet named) Nice Chris :) Very nice!. Background happening ?

Congrats :) Hope they come on well !

Cheers mate :) Haha i've got a feeling I'll end up with a whole new 'scape after the ferry and moving in etc. :lol: Thanks Ian :D Yeah the health of the plants is great in this tank, I'm overfertilising and overdosing liquid carbon and CO2 so they're loving it! Lighting isn't too high so algae...

Last update before I get off to University guys ! Enjoy ! The tank has come a long way! IMG_1930 by KrisHumphreys1991, on Flickr

Thanks for the advice mate. It's a 3 and a half hour ferry and a half hour drive. Not too long. I'm just dreading getting back into the car and the substrate being everywhere. :( PLUS they said no pets in the halls, but f**k that it's plants I'm keeping :lol: That's what I'm going to do with the...

Re: Giants Causeway "Lavagumi" 30L - Slowly getting there :D Quick update. Moving to Uni next week, don't know how I'm going to get this tank there (Ferry trip, drive etc.) without ruining it. In other news, got a new camera so the pictures will be a lot more decent. Here you go guys...

Re: Andyh's Journal "Green Beach" Update 02/09 Scapes mate sorry ! :lol: I'm sure your scales are just as nice !

Re: Andyh's Journal "Green Beach" Update 02/09 Looking superb. Your scales are always so clean looking!

Uh Oh what happened ? Also, off topic, can anyone ID the moss on the branches in pepedopolous's inspiration source ?

Re: Nature's River By Harry Robinson (NEW Video pg11) I read the first part of that too quick :shifty: :lol: Looking great Harry ! Starting to carpet really well :D

Re: Rob's 300L Perigean Beach (week 8) Please more pictures of the marine tank :D

Looks great mate! Nice looking stauro!

Re: The green green grass my first try Spray bar in the sump is going to gas off your CO2 if you inject some. Other than that looking good, hate when you get the rescape bug.. Sometimes you just have to let it grow out. :)

WOW brilliant hardscape :D Love it :D

Re: Giants Causeway "Lavagumi" 30L - Slowly getting there :D Forgot to mention, moved the Vallis to a friends tank because it was becoming nearly 3ft long and had sent out four runners. It also doesnt agree with the Liquid Carbon :D

Re: Giants Causeway "Lavagumi" 30L - BIG UPDATE 06/08/12 Hi guys ! Bit of an update :) Tank is filling in nicely as you can see, still got diatoms though, on the sides of the tank from the sunlight coming in from the window and the door of our study. Also got weird green fuzz algae all...

I love that wood. Good hardscape! Hate to critiscize, but you should add more depth by sloping the substrate. I would have sloped it behind the "stump" in the corner, but thats just me! Keep up the good work :D

Coral sand will send your pH sky high. Just use some play sand or something rougher.

Re: Lè Nano journal •30l Fluval• That's an AWFUL lot of turnover. 10x is usually more than enough!

Re: Giants Causeway "Lavagumi" 30L - BIG UPDATE 06/08/12 Got my Eheim Ecco from Chris. Getting straight on to it!

Re: Nature's River By Harry Robinson (Update Pics) Looking good mate keep it up! Looks miles better than my journal :D

Re: Andyh's Journal "Green Beach" Update 15/08 Looking great mate :D

Re: Giants Causeway "Lavagumi" 30L - BIG UPDATE 06/08/12 Cheers ddam19! Always nice to hear :D:D

Re: Giants Causeway "Lavagumi" 30L - BIG UPDATE 06/08/12 I'm serious! He digs himself in really well then has to "back out" :lol: Can you give me some help on the algae and baldy stems Chris ?

any updates on this?

Nice overhead shot. Would love to see lots more!

Re: Giants Causeway "Lavagumi" 30L - BIG UPDATE 06/08/12 :lol: The nerite is munching his way around but he is digging around my plants too!! :(

Re: Nature's River By Harry Robinson Above comments are right. Assassins are the way forward. I see maybe one or two a week in my 30L, I squish them and let them sink. The shrimp LOVE them :D

Re: Nature's River By Harry Robinson REMOVE. Pond Snail - HORNY PLANT EATER :lol:

Re: Giants Causeway "Lavagumi" 30L - BIG UPDATE 06/08/12 Thanks mate ! I wish I had a better camera to get some decent shots, it looks a lot better in the flesh :) Haha I know I'm a dope, My stems in this tank aren't doing so well to be honest mate, check out the last few pics. Really baldy.

Re: Giants Causeway "Lavagumi" 30L - BIG UPDATE 06/08/12 Mike, I try and try and try...... 3 otos and a Nerite later, I've got about 30% of the glass clean :lol:

Re: Giants Causeway "Lavagumi" 30L - BIG UPDATE 06/08/12 So, bit later than promised, I know.. BUT. Here are the pics. The tanks starting to really pick up with the Ferts and CO2. For my first "real" planted tank, I'm starting to become quite proud of it! Early days yet though I guess...

Re: Beginners Luck It does look very like a Blenny. It might last a while if it is a marine fish... Wonder if it's a wild caught freshwater or something odd?

Re: Andyh's New Journal "Green Beach" 1st Aug12 Great start as always Andy :D

Re: Giants Causeway "Lavagumi" 30L - Update 31/7/12 Okay so a few updates, pics to follow later on tonight! Lowered my light to 18W, and messed about with the CO2 so diffusion is much better now. Although I am thinking of adding a little bit of Liquid Carbon to the tank soon. Speed things up...

Re: Nature's River By Harry Robinson 'Deficiency help please There's loads of people on here mate. Just look at the old ForSale/Swap/Wanted section, find an old RCS for sale thread and PM the member. Done. Probably cheaper and better to get them from someone on here anyway :D I'd give you...

Re: Nature's River By Harry Robinson 'Deficiency help please Good idea. Maybe an amano or two would help !

OOPS. Thanks Harry, I must pay more attention from now on ! :lol:

+1 to what Harry said. Just have the pointiest tip out of the substrate! What's your plant list going to be like ? Are you going low tech? What's the stock light on the Edge ? Good start :D

Re: Nature's River By Harry Robinson Looking good mate. Best get some nice shrimp in there to keep on top of the housework!

Re: Andyh's New Journal "Yet to be named" Very excited Andy. Should be a great scape, knowing you! :D

Re: Nature's River (Planted!) Update p18 Looking very good mate :D love the marsilea :D Well done!

Re: Transparent Tank - puffers Nice vid, nice puffer... Poor snail :lol:

Re: Ryuoh Lagoon [Invisible spraybar!] Very nice Nath. How much did it cost you to make? Very hard to see! I like it :D

Re: [NANO]Nature's River **ITEMS ORDERED, now the wait** Looks nice mate. Will be good when the Riccia grows in for a carpet ! Looking forward to the planting :D

Re: Giants Causeway "Lavagumi" 30L - Update 20/7/12 Thanks very much Nath! :D This is indeed what I have done. Sorry for not being clear enough lads :lol: Thanks for the tips Nath, will keep an eye and see how things go. Forgot to mention about the luminaire also, one of the bulbs is blue...

Re: Giants Causeway "Lavagumi" 30L **BIG UPDATE** Thanks for that Chris. Unfortunately I bought the Lithuanian "Vimi All-in-one" in the end. Got it for €5 in the end, so can't complain. Think I will go EI in the future so you will be getting a PM :lol: So. Small update! By...

Look forward to the next masterpiece :D

Beautiful tank, colours are amazing. Really lush growth :D

Re: The forgotten nano That's a great shot of the tank, moss looks super healthy!

Re: Giants Causeway "Lavagumi" 30L **BIG UPDATE** How much is it mate ? Is that the Tropica one ?

Thats some change!! The poison dart frog setup looks better IMO, really tropical looking ! How did you do such a huge change from aquatics to amphibious ? :D

Re: Giants Causeway "Lavagumi" 30L **BIG UPDATE** Today I have "modified" the Yeast CO2. I originally had it on some plastic tubing straight out of the bottle, leading to an airstone in the tank itself, just under the outlet of the HOB. The bubbles were small, but not small enough for me...

Re: Ryuoh lagoon - (Semi-Planted) So weird, I put them up with Imageshack. Could this have anything to do with it ? Suppose there's better stuff on here to look at anyway haha :lol:

Re: Giants Causeway "Lavagumi" 30L **BIG UPDATE** Thanks Chris :D Really, that praise means a lot! :thumbup: I wouldn't call it a biotope, but I like the way it looks like something that you'd see in nature... if countries were all blended together :lol: The shrimp enjoy it anyway. :D You...

Re: Ryuoh lagoon - (Semi-Planted) I'm great Nath thanks for asking ! :D Been skulking about on here for a while, noseying and not posting! :lol: just started my journal "properly" (The lavagumi one) so that should make me a lot more active! :D That mini hairgrass is an interesting one...

Re: Giants Causeway Thanks Alastair, your choccy puddle is coming along very nicely I see ! Really into that tank :D Hi Bogman, thanks a lot :D I'm pretty pleased with it - just needs to grow out now. Thats a brilliant reason to visit Cork (and all the pubs in it :lol:) I might just take...

Re: Ryuoh lagoon - (Semi-Planted) Great looking Nathaniel :D The hardscape looks fantastic. :D Can't wait to see it fully grown in and planted up to the hilt :D:D:D:D Really starting to love your scapes!

Re: Giants Causeway "Lavagumi" 30L **BIG UPDATE** Okay. Here's the big update ! :D I apologise in advance for the terrible photography ... Phone Camera :oops: The tank will need a new name, but I have no idea how to incorporate lava and shrimp into a good name :lol: I don't know what...

Re: [NANO]Nature's River **BIG CLEAN UP** Looking good mate that was some clean up ! :D What kind of plants are you looking to have ? Oh and don't get a crook, make a spraybar mate :D Much better flow and won't blow your substrate round, as well as directing flow around ALL your plants...

Re: [NANO]Nature's River(Filled up and cycling) Look forward to it Harry, this tank has lots of potential! P.S don't upgrade the light until youre fully planted :)

Giants Causeway "Lavagumi" 30L - Now Shrimp Only Tank Hi guys, Last few weeks have been a bit weird as I've been working a lot and messing with my car. But I was slowly transferring all my RCS to this tank. Now they're all in, and things are going great. :D Keep in mind, all plants have been...

Re: The forgotten nano This looks great Iain. Wouldn't have guessed it was low tech mate! very well done :D

Picture not working.

Cool :) Looks great, I cant wait to see it planted as I love the hardscape! Somethingfishy, we are most definitely junkies. :D

Looks good, what kind of hardware are you using ? Any ideas on a plant list?

Re: Double Opti White Nano - Cherry/Sakura Breeding Colony I love these Paulo :D What lights from Ikea are you talking about above this post ? Regards

Re: Giants Causeway "Lavagumi" 30L Okay as I'm back in Ireland now, I've just finished most of the tank, although still some substrate work to do and I've got some hairgrass from a mate that is covered in algae. Will post pics tomorrow, but just out of interest.. Do dwarf gourami's hate flow...

Looks good mate, I like the second layout the most with the gap and the wood in the middle, looks great. Well done on getting the pictures up :D Much better :D Looks great, lovely fish! You're lucky that they're breeding :) lots of cute little baby rams to look forward to :D Do you know what...

There's a lot of links there, you should try using direct links to post all of them to the page, make it alot easier for everyone to see. Just go on imageshack and it will give you each link to each photo for forums.

Re: [NANO]Nature's River(Hardscaping in Progress,*RIVER MADE Looking good harry!! You have the "'scapers eye" it seems :D

Haha aww I hate Irelands postal system. It's so slow you know! A bit of excercise then eh!

Well when you are selling them, and you're feeling adventurous :lol: you could try posting them to Ireland :D I'll be there for the next few months. Are you culling the miscoloured ones ?

How are those blue sulawesi's coming along in the Fissidens carpet tank ? It's very well done for a simple tank!

Beautiful Paulo :D I like the way the narrow leaf Java comes out in the midground.

Looks really great :D Nice zebra :D I'm jealous, I'd love one!

Re: Schruz's Works - Wabi Kusa, Emersed setups, Planted tank That really is lovely, what are the "spiky" looking plants in the right background ?

Re: My unofficial ADA 120 DoAqua Glass Cascade Journal Never heard of one of these before, I look forward to seeing it progress :D

Re: Aquanano40 Shrimp tank.... This is going to be good. Really like the hardscape, can't wait to see it up and running.

Looks great Bene :D

Re: ADA Mini M-ish Journal Would definitely reccommend the ecco mate. Very quiet, and I'm running the one I got from Antipofish on the tank you sent me at the moment, and the flow is perfect.

Re: Giants Causeway "Lavagumi" 30L Curefan, I know, but I was using it for "artistic" purposes :lol: Ah its hard to find actually ;) you have to know where to go! :D Thanks

Re: Giants Causeway "Lavagumi" 30L Think you're a wee bit off Harry! Are you talking about the iwagumi rule ? I made the name up, knowing nothing about iwagumi :lol: Anyone wanna fill me in ? Thanks for the save Jenclibee :D What do you think I should do to it ? Going to get some nice wood...

Re: ADA Mini M-ish Journal Did you get the "all-clear" for drilling into the wall for the light hanging ?

Re: ADA Mini M-ish Journal YES :D

Re: Giants Causeway "Lavagumi" 30L Its alright :lol: Thanks, yeah I think I will break a large spherical piece that I have up into two smaller pieces and use it towards the back, but I was planning to have some vivipara there or a dense curtain of stems. Don't know yet, what do you think? Thanks

Hmmm there is something I love about this! Can't put my finger on it but it is really nice :D Well done!

Re: Giants Causeway "Lavagumi" 30L Thanks Mortis for your wonderful input. :geek: :geek: :geek: Thanks Harry I took it from the giants causeway, its a gorgeous rock. Very unique. :D

Re: Happy tank .. Awful pics Hey mate, sorry to hear about the plec. :( Tank looks great though :D

Re: ADA Mini M-ish Journal Very innovative Harry. I love it :D When are you planning on adding a filter and some substrate may I ask ? :)

Re: ADA 60-P planted tank (new week 2 photos) Best present ever :D:D He's great looking! Nice shrimp too, they must be fire red! :) Tanks looking great :D
