"Green&Grey" (300l) - Last day video

Great photos, do you clean the rocks at all on your maintenance? if so what with and how often?

Gary, i use a toothbrush every 3 weeks but i'm starting to test giving excel only at the day of the weekly partial change to see if this time can be much longer.

Wow the red is incredible. What lighting did you settle on after your play about a few months ago? It is looking incredible.

Same light (4x39w T5). Red plants have about 5 weeks, Rotala Macandra have only 2 and a half weeks.

I forgot to mention that last weekend i had to take down HM and replanted (these photos are from before that). Six months and it was becoming very fragile.

Pedro.
 
Wow pedro, ive been watching this tank for ages and have loved it but now youve got that red in its a different tank all together, simply superb

Day 219... countdown... some more weeks and i'll be discontinuing this aquarium. Another scape on the way ;)

Plants are very good.

First picture with a total view.
Some trim last friday. HM is growing from two large trims. It needs to grow to fill the aquarium.
Mistakes like this one - hardscape very low - are learned.

Lots of CRS, from 4 shrimps. Lots of CO2 and ferts, but they keep coming ;)

Stunning. It feels like an autumn incarnation of the original.

Thanks guys.

Really loved the feeling you had watching the photos :)

Great to see crs in a high tech. Hope mine do as well as that!

Well, they survive and multiply, but don't expect the same growth rate that low techs have.

Dean, i've got it on my head. Let's hope that i have the necessary skills to make something good :cool:

I agree with all the above, truly unique tank the red is so vibrant it just jumps out and grabs your attention then the ammania takes your eyes to the back of the tank, really really nice I would love to have this in my house
