Hi everyone,
So I've taken the plunge and done a bit of investing. Met up with Chrisintheuk today and left with a few goodies to start my next challenge including an ADA 45p, Aquasky light, Eheim classic 250, CO2 kit and a hydor external heater.
Now I have decided to start my journal whilst I'm still in the very early stages so I can see how the plans evolve before I go ahead. I think it will be a fair few weeks until I start setting up as I still don't really have a plan for the scape.
All I know is it will be high tech planted. Whether that be an Iwagumi style or more jungle. Who knows..., I am tempted by auto dosing my EI ferts. Another issue with these tanks is what stand to get. I kind of feel that a solid oak sideboard would be the perfect complement to it as I'm not a massive fan of the ADA stands.
So scape ideas/ general ideas on a postcard guys, I will post a more detailed plan soon for people to critique.
I am really looking forward to this project, my current setup (see here) is reasonably low tech with EI ferts, T8 lighting and yeast CO2 with "easy" plants. So this is a bit of a jump for me, hence lots of planning. Any advice will be greatly received and will keep everyone updated along the way.
Cheers,
Dan
