Hello
Been a bit slow starting the journal, as i have had a lot on with work, but here we go again:
Aquarium - ADA 60P Cube Garden 60Wx36Tx30D, now with ADA cover glass.
Lights – Suspended Arcadia Luminaire 4 x 24w T5, currently running 2 tube for 7hrs per day. 2 x Osram Skywhite 8000k
Filtration and CO2 – Initially only got a Eheim liberty 2042 on the tanks but the will be soon introducing the Eheim Thermo 2324 (Will be using as a CO2 reactor in conjunction with an Up CO2 Atomizer/2kg bottle on the intake of the filter). Currently running in tank Diffuser, old school
The 2324 has a Seachem Purigen 100ml bag, Carbon and some floss/media in it. CO2 is on 2hrs before lights for a total of 6.5hrs. Drop checker getting a deep green.
Glassware – Cal Aqua 13mm Lily pipes plus crappy green eheim one as i broke my CalAqua intake and i am still sulking. PlusDrop Checker
Substrate – ADA Powersand Special 2ltr, ADA Amazonia Soil 9ltrs
Ferts – ADA Green Gain to start with
After 2 weeks start dosing Tropica Nutrition. Plan to build it up to a proper dose. Start with 3ml.
Hardscape - Manzi Wood Only
