I think its better but I prefered the first shot of this version when the biggest rock was a little more upright.

Looking nice mate. Hope the ammania goes well. :)

looks great mate looking forward to seeing it fill in
 
I'm hoping the Ammania goes well also hahaha well I hope they all respond well .
I know it's filtered well and co2 supply can't fall short . I've got the lighting on a dimmer so it should (touch wood) be good to go .
Mixed in some bacteria enriched Ada soil along with matured filter media . Took my time with this hhaha but I'm ready to tackle that algae when it comes ;)

So far so good .
Drop checker in the yellow / ph drop @ 1.3-1.4 at lights on

1.5 bps
Photoperiod 5hrs
Light is 40% so around 20 watts. I will increase it slightly every few weeks.
Dosing Ei and planning to do 50 % water change every day for the next 3 weeks .
Excuse the heater , I'm hoping to go inline once it's settled in .

Lol, I've never used Amazonia mate I'm too tight, I use florabase though which is similar and I dose from day 1 never seen it do any harm, plus lots of 80% waterchanges with the nanos so gets diluted out anyway, hope that helps mate.
 
Yes cheers , I ask because just came home from work and there was a slight film already on the surface :/
Nothing major but it wasn't as clear as yesterday
I've raise the lily pipe to break the surface but I'm just a little concerned that it could be to much nutrients .
There is new growth on the Monte Carlo though. :)

IMO the film is more to do with co2 than nutrients, water changes and good surface movement should see it off.
 
I did up the co2 anyway it's at 2bps now.

There's only so much surface movement you can get out of a lily pipe .
