Hi all,
So today is the 6th of July 2016, the day in which the first few pieces of the puzzle have started to arrive. This will be my first planted tank and so I am sure its going to be a long and enjoyable jouney into creating a peacful piece of nature in my living room!
As this is my first planted tank I am purchasing 99% of the bits as I go, many of which I am still looking for suggestions/ recommendations for so please feel free to offer your advice..
Currently purchased -
Tank - (Length 110cm, Depth 54cm, Height 42cm) Optiwhite glass, clear Silicone, braceless.
Lights - 2 x ZETLIGHT ZP4000 42w LEDs, wireless recievers and controller
Filtration - 2 JBL e1501
Two sets of glass lily pipes from co2 supermarket
Co2 - Pub cylinder, Dual output needle valves, 2 bubble counters and 2 Original UP inline diffusers
Substrate
ADA amazonia
ADA Mekong sand
Hardscape
Large driftwood piece and approx 40kg of rock
As for plants Im going to decide on a hardscape I like and then decide on planting after this.
Tank arrives next week, looking forward to that! Please let me know any thoughts!
