Hi everyone, I thought it was about time, having not had a tank running for over 5 years, that I started a new journal. I'm now starting to settle into my sleepy town in far southern (and ridiculously hot) Japan, and managed to source a few bits and pieces. I have an ADA 45P on order from a...

Feeling a bit left out at uni having nothing alive in my room but me and bedbugs, so now I'm home for a couple of months I couldn't resist making something. Got a small bit of lava rock and a few plants from work, and came up with this. Glued all the plants on a couple of weeks ago and all is...

I thought now might be a good time to start my journal for the 60P, which arrived yesterday from TGM, very well wrapped and packaged. I will be using the Eheim Ecco Pro 300 that is currently running my Mini M, along with the 2kg FE and UP reg. I'll also use the lily pipe inlet from the Mini M...

Just thought I'd get a couple of pics up of my P@H cube. It's the 15l one, all standard equipment with an AquaEl mini heater. I'm dosing TPN+ every so often, with a tiny bit of Easy Carbo. Substrate is an old ADA Amazonia and Power Sand mix, under Congo Sand. The Bolbitis is looking a bit...

Hoping for better luck this time around! A different approach. Aquarium ADA Mini M Lighting 18w PC Filter Eheim Ecco Pro 300 CO2 FE, start at 1bps Substrate ADA Aquasoil Africana, ADA Congo Sand mixed with P@H grey gravel to bulk out Wood ADA Old Iron Wood Rocks ADA Ryouh Stone Ferts Undecided...

Tank - Do!aqua 20cm - 8 liters Light - AquaEl 9w PC Filter - Azoo HOB 120lph Substrate - Unipac black sand Daily Ferts - 1ml TPN+, 1ml AE AquaCarbon, bit of Spezial N. Got some Glosso today from Plantedtanks Used most of it in this cube, then some in the Mini M to fill the gaps. The rest...

A couple of people have asked about a journal for this, so I thought I'd start one. I've had it for months now, and not been able to plant it up because the other tank has all the equipment on it. I'll be moving the FE CO2, UP Reg, Eheim 2036 and glassware over when that's done. For now, it's...

That's a really nice, well balanced layout you've got there :) Tom

Thought that after quite a long time of being almost totally out of the fish world I'd start a new nano :) I was tempted by one of the new AquaEl Shrimp Kits that my LFS (and tonnes of other shops!!) had got in not that long ago. The next time I visited, I got the smallest one - 10 liters. It...

Well it's been a very long time since I've had a planted tank now, but since I've just inherited my parents Rio 180 (they are upsizing and going malawi), I thought I'd go planted again. Just low tech, keeping the 2 T5 bulbs, same old soil but with tonnes of Tropica capsules and new sand, and the...

Hello :) Bouncing back from double disaster, I have cleaned out my 60x40x40cm, separated all powersand/aquasoil/bright sand/xingu sand and re-set it up minus the sand. I've just planted up up with some Crypts and Dwarf Sag from the jungle downstairs, but I'm going to need some more bits and...

I thought it was time to turn this into a journal, as I keep posting final shots and then slightly changing it :roll: So here we go with the latest changes. Added some Vallisneria nana and Staurogyne from the festival, and some Crypt wendtii (?) from the Rio180 downstairs. The tank is taking...

Just started setting up my DIY 60x40x40 this morning, even though I still don't have a filter. All the substrates (Power Sand Special, AS Amazonia, Bright Sand) are ADA, the pipes are Flo Pipes (in need of a clean), drop checker is Boyu and the diffuser is cheap rubbish :lol: Thought I'd put...

Might as well make a journal of this tank now as its planted up :D Hardscape: Took a trip to P*ts at Home this morning, and came back with far too many Tropica plants :roll: I got 2 big Microsorium "narrow", 3 pots of Micranthemum umbrosum, and a pot of something I haven't heared of...

This is the small one, not the 5x2x2. This one is about 14" long, by roughly 10" tall and 8/9" deep. Went to a World of Slaughter (sorry I meant Water) today and got some rocks similar to mini landscape rocks, and the nice man gave me a bit of a discount :D Well here's what Ive come up...

I bought some more mini landscape rocks from aquaessentials last week, and as I had some leftover ADA aquasoil and Sarowak sand I decided to have a go in my 12l tank. The theme for this is "Willow Stream", hence the title. The branches on the right, I am hoping, will turn into a willow tree with...
