Hello,
After seeing a lot of videos regarding Aquascaping (Green Aqua, George Farmer, among others), I´ve decided to try and have a planted tank. I already have a Biorb Life 60 lt that was offered to me, but to start my adventure in aquascaping I've brought home (after my wife's approval) a 100 lt tank (ILA Europa 60x40x40). I've used 2lt of Power Sand Advance, 11lt of Aquasoil Amazonia Vers II and Aquasoil Amazonia Powder. My hardscape is a root of pine and some Seiryu Stone. Regarding plants, here is the list: 5 x Montecarlo; 3 x Cuba; 2 x Eleocharis Mini; 1 x Marsilea Hirsuta; 1 x Marsilea Crenata; 1 x Hydrocotylle Verticillata; 1 x Hygrophila Araguaia; 1 x Hygrophila Pinnatifida; 1 x Bucephalandra Kedagang; 1 x Myriophyllum Guyana; 1 x Rotala Wallichii; 1 x Rotala sp Green; 2 x Rotala Vietnam H´ra; 1 x Anubia nana Pangolino; 1 x Anubia nada bonsai; 1 x Limnobium Laevigatum (shared with the Biorb 60lt); 1 x moss Riccardia sp chamedryfolia.
The tank has been running for three weeks, the first two in a "Dark Start" with the hardscape in place and the filter running (with the help of Seachem Stability), and sincethe 20th of August with the plants are in place and the Twinstar II 600S on 80% for 6 hours.
here are some pics, what do you guys think?
