Re: Alex's 96l low light Iwagumi
Well, it's been a busy week, sorting out the tank, and revising for an RE and maths exam... I'm pooped
I t was worth it though, as I now have a layout which I am happy with...
First of all, I had to sort out the sand, as my barrier, wasn't too effective when the rocks were displacing the substrate
So after around 2 hours, I had picked out most of the naturesoil, and was left with all this
Oh by the way Lisa, what were you saying about a tidy room
After learning from my earlier mistake, and not wanting to spend another 2 hours picking naturesoil out of sand, I came up with a simple plan, to keep the sand clean...
Kitchen roll
The idea being, that any displaced naturesoil, would sit on top of the kitchen roll, and allow me to, carefully take out the messy kitchen roll leaving clean sand
Anyway, after all the preperation here is the finished layout...
This is how the layout is going to stay(
), so now I can start thinking about plants. My initial thoughts are
Fissidens Fontanus
Marsilea Hirsuta
However if i decide on something a little more demanding, I have a backup plan
I have two 11w arcpods, so one for each hood flap, if need be 8)
Thanks for looking
Alex
