Hey everyone, hope this helps someone out there
Specs
Tank- ADA 60P
——————————————————
Filter-Eheim 2215 (upgraded impeller)
——————————————————
Light- Chihiros A-Series 60cm
——————————————————
Hardscape- spider wood, fireplace stone
——————————————————
Misc-heater 50 Watts, soon to be swapped for the smallest hydro inline
Chihiros Doctor Algae inhibitor (they work very well in my experience) installed behind hardscape
——————————————————
Flora - We went with low tech for now but might add co2 to fill everything in quicker
Anubis nana
Bolbitis “mini”
Weeping moss
Red crypts (lol)
Green crypts (lol)
Crypt Parva
Couple stems of pearl weed
Blyxa Japonica
Needle leaf java fern
—————————————————-
“Substrate”
Generally I think of substrate as soil but this is not soil, this is ADA La Plata sand. Just bought two small bags

Anyway, this was a very fast tank build, as in we bought everything in about 30 minutes including the fish. Yes everything that I’ve learned about this hobby says patience and planning is best. Well I didn’t follow anything I promised to do for my tank. Luckily this is not “my” tank. I found an ADA 60P on Craigslist, 6 months old, no scratches literally nothing. And a nice archae stand (think I spelled it right). Best part was it was all less than the tank brand new
Sorry I was in a rush and I had no time to take photos in the process.
Hope you like it!
