Hi,
Im new to UK APS but im not new to Aqua scaping with around 10 years of experience in the hobby already. Looking forward to seeing some of your scapes and helping where i can. Here are a couple of mine.
The Nano is newly setup and doesn't get as much attention as my big tank so it suffers with GSA slightly but it wont take long to sort out. Its also in my garage in an insulated box because the mrs wont let me have another tank in the house lol!!

High tech setup
30l cube
Light: J&P nano (provided by J&P Aquariums in Toronto) 7hrs full power
Co2 2hrs less then the photo period
fertilizer im still playing with due to the GSA but i was using Tropica Advanced and i think its too much.
shrimp only tank (cherrys)

This is my Aquascaper 900 - high tech setup using co2 and the light by ONF.
Fertilizer are
Micro Easylife profito
Macro my own blend, which is mainly high potassium and phosphates with very low nitrates.
Lighting period is 11hrs with a sunset and sunrise function so its not 100% all of the time.
co2 is on for 3hrs before lights and off 1hr before the lights do.
currently stocking with fish but you can see i have a few in there :D and alot of shrimp

Im throwing away trimmings from this tank every week by the bucket load lol!

Look forward to seeing some of your tanks and scapes and maybe help out a bit.

Cheers Craig
