It'll be fine just give it a boat load of co2 then slowly tweak it back before you add livestock. Your looking for a yellow drop checker at lights on. Green means safe for fish and you have none yet.
Dont let hc get so thick that it starts going yellow next to substrate as this is when it starts to detatch from substrate.

Sounds good ,so really I wanna keep it trimmed at about 30c Max ??

Why not get clear suckers and zip ties to hold your spray bar in place then it becomes invisible.

Good luck Sam can't wait to see it wet know what you mean about the next scape I'm thinking of chopping up my dining room table burning it on the log stove and replacing it with a big aqaurium maybe next year

Flooded the tank this morning , almost 100% stress free , co2 leaked from bubble counter so had re do that, checked all seals and so far all good , everything else running fine just trying to get the DC yellow at lights on , so far after an hour it has turned a nice lime green , flow seems really good . Will upload pics later on
