It has begun, my first ever attempt at aquascaping and today was spent building the cabinet, positioning the tank and getting things in place.
Tank Specs.
I'm new to this so these specs may well change over time but I'll try to keep them up to date. The secondary pump pumps water up over the LED's in the hood which cools them, heats the water as it passes over them and increases flow in the tank.
Here's how things went today.
Not a huge amount of progress today, but it's a start, and I'm loving those LED's for backlighting effect, although they are somewhat drowned out by the main lights.
