Hi all
Time for a new layout and for a new journal! My 60 liters tank has been empty during the last 5 months and I have enjoyed very much the layout design for the first time. That means plenty of time to think about what I wanted, for collecting wood, rocks, etc. In other words, enjoying a part of the process that now I realize I have always done much too fast. I will be flooded and planted in a few days. I have some plants in my mind but I also want to take some time to make sure they match with the hardscape. I don't want the wood and rocks to disappear in a few months... I will probably go for carpet plants and mosses.
Hardscape and equipment specifications
60 liters optiwhite tank
T5HO 2x24w with cheap tubes (6500 K)
Filter JBL e901
Co2 Art Lily pipes
8 kg CO2 cylinder with CO2 Art singe stage regulator and bubble counter
Do!Aqua ceramic Co2 diffuser
Collected wood (Juniperus sabina branches... never sink! attached with hot glue to bottom and rocks)
Collected rocks (Bluish-greenish slate from Asturias coast, north Spain)
Enriched soil (mixture of ADA AquaSoil and HELP Advanced shrimps... what I had at home)
Cosmetic soil (JBL Sansibar River)
And the first picture...
