Ten years ago I set up a planted aquarium ("Punishment of Luxury" - it's on here somewhere) with moderate success. After a few months I took it down, and the aquarium has been standing empty, reproachfully, in the corner of our dining room ever since.
With plenty of time on my hands (we all know why), I finally decided to get it going again.
It was planted up on December 6th and so far it's going (and growing) really well.
Here's the hardscape. Seiryu stone from the original layout, new bogwood from UKAPS sponsors Horizon Aquatics.
Planted up, first filling. (I know, I know, red colander. On the way back from Horizon Aquatics I dropped in to Ribbon Foods in Darlington to stock up on curry ingredients and there they were, a big stack of them. £2.50 - bargain!)
Immediately after the first fill.
And here it is on Dec 18th, twelve days later.
