Re: nelson's nano 2

just stripping this down now.
had been neglected and was a mess :oops: .
new scape in a week or so ;) .
 
Re: nelson's nano 2

Lovely looking tanks, 1 & 2. This gives me some great idea for a 12x10x10 i have. The resun filters out pipe, is that a mini spray bar type thing?

Have you moved form EI to TPN+ yet? If so how is it going? any difference?

Re: nelson's nano 2

cheers :D .

yeah,mini spraybar on the output.
not a great difference on the ferts.just easier,for me, with the TPN+ on such small tanks.

Certainly can - up the river - cannot wait to see this grow, reminds me of the river Lyn down in North Devon - Lynton & Lynmouth, are putting any fish :?: if so can I recommend some Mountain Cloud minnows as I would resemble salmon on their run to the spawning grounds.

Regards

:woot: WOW!! Loving the work mate......I absolutely love it and this sort of look is right up my street. Nice, refreshing scape, got that quality look about it! :geek: You've come up with an original scape design and excited well, the planting adds to the overall depth and the wood adds to the detailing, 1st class and I look forward to seeing it maturing. :D

the plan is that you will only see some of the wood once the plants grow.
i'm hoping they will look like trunks and branches ;) .
