Isolation

[Ps3Steveo]

Starting to get the feeling that my Dutch has run its course now so I'm moving the ARC 35 on and setting up another 60L, this one was given to me by a friend for looking after their other tank for them. Its an old tetra tank and once the plastic is all taken off will make a nice rimless, braceless tank.

Going with a single tree scape on a sort of hill with some pebbles/rocks, hence the name.

Sort of in the planning stages at the moment so we'll see how its goes.

Specs:

60L rimless, braceless
Aquamanta EFX200
Custom LED lighting 30W
Pressurised CO2
Full AE ferts
Killi's or Cockatoo's
Mini Pelia, Fissidens Fontanus and undecided
Mini landscape rock & some secret wood I found

More info when the ball starts rolling.

Made up a set of clear filter inlet/outlets
Bought lighting gear, LED of course
Stripped and soaked wood
Ordered 10KG of Mini landscape rock
Ordered 10L of Florabase black and a 2.5L black small grain
Ordered new regulator and inline diffuser
Ordered Hydor ETH200
 
Buying an Aquamanta EFX300 for Undiscovered so using the EFX200 on this.

This is why I'm bad at aquascaping. I want the scapes to all stay running forever.

 

[Ps3Steveo]

Lol, these are new scapes mate, mine do generally run a long time if I'm happy with them.

Small update, got some hardscape in there, what you think? The tree is just there to give me an idea as there is a tree going in but this is one of my bonsai the dog ate.
