Hello,
Today I started my new nano. It's 16l and is going to be proper low tech 'el natural'. Equipment is a simple HOB filter and a small heater. Lighting will be a single 3w high power LED.
I've started out with John Innes compost topped with gravel. Some rocks and red moor roots for hardscape and a selection of crypts;
Costata x3
Becketti x2
Undulatus green x1
Moehlmannii x1
Nevelli x3
Enough for a nano I should hope. I started planting today directly into the soil and cap with gravel when I am done. Dosing should be nothing all. I've been reading a lot about these tanks and Walstad's methods and I'm excited to get this going. I haven't done a tank in this way before so any advice will be gladly received. Cheers,
Daniel
