GETTING BACK INTO THE TANK LIFE

[Squiggle]

thankyou' date=' it has been doing my head in[/quote']

Glad I could help very cool looking tank & that's a serious amount of Co2 you've got cranking out there :encouragement:

I'm no planted tank expert but is it safe to have that much CO2 pumping out at the same time?

[Squiggle]

It can be bad if there isn't many plants in the tank & a lot of livestock, as long as you have a Co2 checker & the amount of Co2 isn't too saturated it should be ok, otherwise it could effect the fish badly :encouragement:

well im not to sure honestly what would look good in a drift wood scape? I will have to do some reaserch

[OzShrimp]

you could always stick to mosses and plants that thrive on driftwood such as crypts, swords, anubias. Be weary of Anubias though if you cut the rhyzome and put it straight back into the tank it releases a toxin into the water which is deadly to shrimp.

Looking forward to seeing updates of the tank!

i need a fair bit of US fissidens for the forground but im still not sure what the background will be, any ideas? i need some moss to attach to the drift wood, a few different types would be good
