It's close to Christmas -- time to rescape my overgrown and old tank..

Tank: Eheim Vivaline 240L 120Lx40Dx50H (I think it's too narrow).
I really like the look of lotus - so this is an attempt to feature the red plant with contrasting green and narrow leaf plants.
Taking inspiration from Full of Joy and Lotus pond in summer.

Equipment:
Two 75w spot lights
Oase 600 filter with inline heater and atomiser

Currently doing EI dosing with TNC complete of 42mL per week (split to 3 times) for the estimated total water volumn of 172L. I will set up a dosing pump with dry salt

Welcome any questions and comments!
