Tank
60cm x 38cm x 38cm Opti-White from ND Aquatics
Hasn't been delivered yet - is due to be delivered this Wednesday. Fingers crossed
Filtration
CristalProfi E700 rated at 700L/H.
Flo Glass Lily Pipes (Inlet & Outflow)
I'm hoping that this will give plenty of flow (10x)
Heating
Unheated, I don't heat any of my tanks any more and they all hover around 22-24 degrees. I suppose that's a benefit of having a tank in a warm bedroom.
Lighting
UP Pro-L 58cm (72W in total)
CO2
3KG Pressurised CO2 Bottle
UP Inline CO2 Atomizer 12/16mm
UP Bubble Counter with Double Check Valve
Fertilisation
Undecided yet; will probably start off with the same routine I used on my last tank.
TPN+ daily, with a weekly water change.
Flora
Completely undecided yet. I would like to try and incorporate Blyxa Japonica - I've never used this plant but I really like it.
Fauna
Will decide after the scape is complete.
Substrate
2 x 7KG Colombo Flora-Base Black
I expected to use about 1 and 1/2 bags but it turns out I'll probably only need 1 bag
Hardscape
20KG Mini Landscape Rock - Ebay (£39.90)
Wasn't really happy with the variety of rocks, most of them were quite small. Also, they were flat and boring in shape. I've picked the best ones for the scape but I still have loads left.
Looking for comments on the hardscape, just practising for now - as you may tell from the cardboard box. Great idea that I've seen other people do before I just hope I don't have too much trouble transferring it into the tank.
