[Jayefc1]

I’d also consider LEDs from this German company
(they do great plant growth and show well in video, I haven’t looked at relative pricing)

Quick pic of the 800 after a good clean and bit of love it had been about 3 months but all seems really good lil bit off bba on the rocks and Anubias buy nothing really give the rocks a quick clean with a wire brush not to much I quiet like the natural greening of them changes the sand pulled out the tripartita as it was wild and made it looks real messy but the buces and Anubias all seem happy all in all not to shabby

Looking fantastic

I’m no good at trimming/training H tripartite so always end up doing the same

Will he sad to see this go in the next few weeks to be honest probably the easiest tank I've ever kept I really do believe it has to do with there being no soil in it

Probably this, combined with your careful choice of plants and I bet the layout helps maintain really good flow right round the tank. It's a great scape and I'll be sad to see it go. You could ease the suffering by telling us that you've placed the order for your 1200....

 

[Jayefc1]

@howanic Haha yes the order had been placed for the 1200 3 to 4 weeks for delivery

 

[howanic]

Can't wait to see what you have planned for it. Hope you continue your journal or start a new one.

 

[Jayefc1]

Was thinking a iwagumi to start but I dont know yet will have to wait and see the tank get a feel for the size and depth of it

 

[Siege]

@howanic Haha yes the order had been placed for the 1200 3 to 4 weeks for delivery

More like 6-8 weeks.......

 

[SRP3006]

Yea, mine has a date of the 14th August, about 7 weeks.

 

[Jayefc1]

Either way I'm in no rush it will get here when it gets here lol

 

[Jayefc1]

Well @Siege so.much for 6_8 weeks it will be here next wed just under 4 weeks from being ordered didnt expect that to be honest

 

[howanic]

Are you ready for it though?
What’s your plan? Did you save many plants from the others?

 

[Geoffrey Rea]

Gotta love surprises mate...

Every tank change isn’t a tank change without some drama. Sure you’ll roll with it admirably @Jayefc1 and looking forward to this one

 

[Jayefc1]

@howanic no where near ready for it still got 3 tanks in the living room lol going to have to get me finger out this week and try to start planning something lol

 

[Geoffrey Rea]

Do you have a garage @Jayefc1 ? Just pop the 1200 in there until you’re ready and continue as currently planned if so. No point rushing it if you can help it mate, wouldn’t let EA’s delivery date dictate what you’re doing.

Alternatively, if it’s that much of a headache you could tell EA to push the delivery date back. You’re the customer.
