Hi!
This will be my first post on this forum. I hope you guys will be understanding me. I'm not that good in english :)

I just restarted a nano tank. It will be a Iwagumi-style. Love to get some comments on this one. This is my second scape ever.

Setup:

Aquarium: Aquael 30x30x35

Stand: IKEA bestå (yes I'm from Sweden)

Lightning: 2 x Aquael Leddy smart 6w, 8h/day

CO2: Sodastram kit

Filtration: Eheim professionell 2071

Ferts: Tropica SF 7ml/week (just 2ml for now)

Hardscape: Stones from nature, fluval stratum soil.

Plants:
Hemianthus callitrichoides
Anubias nana "pettite"
Hydrocotyle tripartita sp "Japan"
Hygrophila Polysperma Rosanervig
Micranthemum umbrosum

Scape week 1

Week 2 update!

All plants have started to grow well except HCC


I've made a few changes with the hardscape. Removed two stones at the front.

My plans on the hygrophila is to trim it so it's stays low and will become dense.

Feel free to comment the scape!

Can't get my photos visible in the forum... What's wrong? Just changed to Flickr instead of Pinterest and now the BBCodes doesn't work...

Ok! It's only the last ones that is Flickr. I changed back to Pinterest because I couldn't get it to work. But Flickr is much better picture quality

Day 21
Water change and some "improvements" of the scape, or what do you guys think? I think it's more balanced now.

Took pictures of the plant which I thought was micranthemum umbrosum? You have some HCC growing beneath to compare the size of the leaf

Staghorn...

Day 32 update!
Got some staghorn in the tank, again.. Had problems with this Algae in the previous setup. It probably came with the HC and bloomed out now when I changed to another type of outflow. Had to change the position of the diffuser too.
