Yeah i agree, loving the big rock, any idea what type of layout your going to go for, as well as plants? I know what you mean about buying the "best" (no doubt people will dispute). I started in this hobby with cheap ugly equipment and only ended up upgrading it all and costing more :D...

Gorgeous tank Viktor! You must be very proud! :D

No worries, I might learn something :D

Yeah I slowly acclimatised them for 1-2 hours.

Noted :D That's £120 saved!

Thanks Ian for the quick reply. Drop checker just arrived this morning from Aquasabi (am i allowed to discuss suppliers? If so, brilliant service again from Tobias) so will up the CO2 tonight. Wanted to check water just incase it wasn't the CO2 that made my shrimp jump (it was alot higher when...

Update time: Having some major issues with this tank now :evil: I seemed to lose all 12 of my shrimp! I came home from work and found they all decided to have a high jump contest and scattered across my living room floor. I believe it was my fault though, so feel very gutted. I increased the...

Right, time for an update, its been a few weeks. I'll just update it as 1 big post, showing the transition within the last 3.5 weeks. After increasing the CO2 to 2.5 bps, decreasing the light time to 9 hours and 50% water changes the algae seemed to be decreasing. Week 2.5: Hemianthus...

Thanks for the feedback :) Yeah i have to agree it is a design classic, i just loved the whole setup - tank and light, very smart, plus was the only reasonably sized ADA tank i could ever really afford! Could go down E.I. route again but as its a small tank the running costs for ADA ferts...

Thanks, i'll up the CO2 then whilst i have no fish and shrimp. Yeah dosing as per ADA's instructions - 1ml Brighty K (potassium) every day for the 1st 2 weeks. 2nd week started to dose 1ml Green Bacter each day for promoting filter bacteria growth along with Brighty K and then after 19 days...

Thanks. What tweaking would you recommend then?

Well, after being away from the hobby I've finally gotten back into it, yay, and this is my first journal! I've recently purchased a large marine tank and in the process of starting it but I guess my heart is really in tropical nature aquariums, so I thought id start a small ADA tank. This...

Yeah i too had an accident with my HK glass flow pipes. Again, it was the sucker nub part that just snapped off. Fitted the outflow sucker fine but like its already been mentioned,the nub seemed too big for the sucker hole and i managed to snap it. Still, i recommend them lol and bought another...

Re: ADA 60-P planted tank (week 1 photos) How about some Crystal Red Shrimp?

Wow, tank looks amazing now, well done Daniel! Seems upping the CO2 sorted your issues out. How many bps now?

Ahhh great, cheers, may have to get me some of that, it looks nice and bright :D

Sounds good :D What ADA sand is it you've used? I can't quite make out the name of it from the picture. Cheers

Looking forward to seeing this one develop and fully planted. Do you know what plants your going to have?

Ahhhh, thank you. Looks stunning!

Ahhh that explains it, cheers. Lets have a look and see where my nearest store is... :)

Any update on this one? How are you getting on with the algae? Hope your winning the fight!

Great little tank, very inspiring, i want one for my work desk now!! Is this tank still available or is it in store only? Can't find it on their website. Cheers

Loving the rock layout, cannot wait to see this one when its planted. Also, excuse my ignorance but what does Manzigumi mean?
