Duck, it's looking fantastic. I'm quite envious.

Now I've gotta try to make mine look something like that.

What's the ground cover. Is that glosso?

Looks wonderful.

Well done Duck!

A list of plants that you have in that tank would be awesome if you get the chance!

Also, what type/s of fish are you thinking you will put in there?

cheers

Thankyou all,
Thistank started out as my holding tank for my 4ft,This week end i will tweak it a little,a take some better shot's and post them.
Hope you don't mind the way i answered just thought it might be easier for anyone else who read's it to follow.

co2 ?
I have CO2 DIY through a power head.


what temp are you growing them in?
i dont have a heater and it ranger's between 22-26 maybe more sometimes.

how long have the plants been in
Since january,Then i had a setback with some caddis fly larva? which ate a few of the plant's.


What's the ground cover. Is that glosso?
It is hair grass i do have a little glosso in there somewhere


A list of plants that you have in that tank
I have Rotala macaranda,Hair grass,A bit of glosso,Pearling grass,Rotala rotundafolia,Ludwigia Arcuata,Lud rupens,Crypt parva,Babytear's,Riccia,One or two more i think.

Also, what type/s of fish are you thinking you will put in there?
I had some but i put them to sleep with the CO2,So i'll just go without,As my CO2 is a DIY and uncontrollable not wise that i keep killing fish.

Hi Duck

Your tank is looking good. What substrate do you use? Is it eco complete?

[duck]

Thanks
Yes i use Eco-Complete in all my Planted tanks.

[Bad Inferno]

do you trim the hair grass ?

[duck]

At this stage i haven't,I believe it is a dwarf hair grass,So i will wait and see how dwarf it is.

[shayesmommy]

im jealous.
we tried planting our tank but its not working to well.
we got two very nice plants left lol and some corkscrew grass. that the discus eat all the time.
we bought a really good light system hoping it would help but nothing drastic.
i love your set up and your plants its so incredibly beautiful keep up the good work
