Hello guys,
I've decided to get a tank set up and get growing plants again after a lengthy time off.
The Dry start method is particularly useful for me at the moment, as I move house in approximately 3 weeks. This should give me some growing in time.
Haven't really had much sand substrate in a tank before so it's strange looking at it at the moment
Rundown:
Tank: ADA mini M (36x22x26cm)
Lighting: ADA Solar M (27w) - 14-16 hours DSM
Heating: 14w Heat mat to keep humidity up a little.
Filtration: None yet but Eheim Ecco
Hard scape: Manzanita wood & ADA Manten stone
Substrate: ADA Amazonia Powder & Unipac Maui sand (medium Grain size)
Plants list:
Microsorum Pteropus "needle"
Microsorum Pteropus "trident"
Staurogyne Repens
Eleocharis "Mini"
Hemianthus Callitrichoides "Cuba"
Fissidens Fontanus
Riccardia Chamedryfolia
Everything is pretty much in place except from the 'Yogurt mix Moss' which will be happening at the weekend at some point.
Anyway, here's a few iPhone Pics:
Everything looks a bit flat at the moment, but will hopefully look a lot better in a couple of weeks. The fissidens on the stones at the front look like splats, but they should be nice to shape when filled.
Thanks,
It's good to be back in action.
