Hi Planted, welcome to SKF, gald you decided to drop by here.... i've seen your tank on T.O.S and was amazed at it's quality and the scape. would you like to share a tank spec other than the size sometime?

[planted]

Hi there

not really sure what else i could say about the tank ? other than plants are, narrow leaf java, normal java, crested java, philippine java, few different kinds of anubius large and small "i forget all there names"

echinodorus vesuvius which is only just hanging in there, peacock moss, flame moss, subwassetang, valis, and another planted plant i can't remember the name of atm.

substrate is 40kg's redsea flora base.

1 x dual sera sponge filter unit and 1 x single sponge filter unit 2 x sera air pumps.

lighting is a 4 x 24w compact fluoro, globes are around 10000k i think on for 7hrs a day atm.

not sure on water perams as i don't check em these days, but last time i checked water out of the tap was pH6.8 - 7

water is aged for 1-2 weeks and prime added for safety.

food fed to shrimp is shirakura shrimp food once to twice a week, shirakura micro organism powder once every week and shirakura mineral powder added after water change.

Think thats about it ;) [url=http://www.aqmagic.com/shrimp-food/shirakura-yellow-micro-organism-powder-p-302.html]
