Alll the stuff from aqua essentials came to day :drool: .Plants so immaculate that i couldn't believe it(get what you pay for!).But when cleaning the tank out i remembered that it had an undergravel filter (dumb me... :blink: ).So tommorow we are going out to buy another tank(hopefully). :hyper:
This is what i got anyways;
Mono potassium phosphate 250g
potassium nitrate 250 g
ada aqua soil amazonia (3litres)-normal
Tropica plant nutrition 500 ml
All tropica;
Rotala rotundifolia (only sent one because they didn't have the second :( )
ludwigia repens "rubin"
Hydrocotyle leucocephala
Plants are floating in a bucket with co2 and my hood from nano :/
 
Sounds good!
Watch out for that aquasoil btw, I cant get my pH over 6 with it!
I've added a filter bag or crushed coral to the filter, and there is a pile of shells form the beach hidden behind a rock, as well as lots in the substrate :shout: .

My water was around 6.5 in the tank but then suddenly for no apparent reason.....poof now its too acidic to get a reading with my test kit :(.
It killed my shrimp.

Other than the pH thing, the plants grow completely rampant in it! :D :good: .
 
crikey they are going to be expensive plants ;)

You could always have just taken the pump off the UG and bought a new filter* --- you may want to ignore that if you REALLY want a new tank --- you have the (almost) perfect excuse ;)

* unless I'm missing something special about the tank you have

Actually yes,you are lol.Thing is the company(azoo) built the tank so it is not a glass block,cube or whatever you want to call it.Instead only the side and front panels are glass (one whole peice) which is sycloconed to the 1-2mm THIN FLIMSY PLASTIC (this is what broke and started leaking with me! :crazy: ) on the bottom and back of the tank.The filter is the black background (looking like it anyway)and the plastic covering (part of the filter) it is syloconed to the glass panel so i can't remove it :blink: .see-(old pics)
