After moving house and not been able to set the big shallow one up yet, so I set my little holding tank after it’s been at a friends being neglected
The tanks been running with shrimp for around 6 months but looked a bit of a mess.
Thought I’d give it a 30 minute overhaul, before popping the fish in, not planned and still need to break the H. Pinnatifida up on the left hand side but pretty happy with it!
Specs:
Tank: cheap W40 H25 D20 20 litres
Light: cheap Chinese LED fixture
Filter: (you guessed it) cheap Chinese HOB
Co2: FE with cheap Chinese diffuser around 2 bps
Substrate: tropica soil with a little bit of sand
Hardscape: mini landscape stone and some wood!
Plants:
Microsorum Trident
Microsorum Narrow leaf
Mixed moss
Cryptocoryne legroi
H. Pinnatifida
Anubias nana petite
Bucephalandra
glosso
Frogbit
Fish:
RCS
4 ember tetra
1 galaxy Rasbora (friend killed all his so this was his last one)
Looking forward to getting the big’un set up but thought I’d post this here rather than a journal as it’ll be broken down within the next month or so!
