New Nano - Endlers

[Gill]

So I went Shopping for an Unuasual Lage Bowl to make a unique planted bowl out of using the moss from the back of the house.

3 hours later and 6 shops, not a thing.

So off to the LFS to see what they have. I found a Nice shallow 18" tank. Planted it with a few Marimos some Anubias and Creeping Jenny, thats been in the Daphnia tank.
Added some Bogwood.

More Plants on there way, Specifically more Marimo and Anubias.

Fish are going to be Black Bar Endlers arriving on Tuesday Morning.

Will Post Pix once all settled down end of next week.

The fish for the Tank arrived this afternoon courtesy of royal mail.
Very Pleased with the packaging and the heat pack kept them very warm.

Acclimating and a bit of scaping to do with some of the plants.

May post some Pix Soon

Have Decided on the layout of the new Nano.
Does it look ok. Would you move anything around.

Nice plan.

What light and CO2 will you be running? Submersed riccia needs a fair bit of both.

Nice plan.

What light and CO2 will you be running? Submersed riccia needs a fair bit of both.

I Am Going to use 1 of the Lights from the Cube Downstairs or a Desk Lamp.

I could leave the Riccia floating and have Java Moss going across the Substrate.

I think I may have bought toooooo Many Moss Balls I've ordered 10. but they have been delayed by weather.

Riccia is coming from Russell, so no worries there.

These is the Plants I will be using also.

Aeschynomene fluitans
Trapa Natans (Water Chestnut)
Nymphoides Indica
Creeping Jenny - some fresh plants as mine are looking sad ATM from being in the Daphnia Tank.
Anubias Barteri T

Not So Sure about the Driftwood Twigs, Might take them out and leave just the plants.
I'm Looking forward to what the lillies will look like in it.

That looks sweet ! indeed !

 

[George Farmer]

That is a very impressive aquascape already. I prefer it to your previous cube. Very creative.

 

[RadaR]

How do you do it Gill!? Its a work of art

That tank is amazing, i really do think that FW tanks can look just as good as SW nano's the more i look at all of your guys tanks

 

[Dave Spencer]

Very impressive. It has the feel of a river`s edge to me. Any chance of a picture with a neutral background so we can get a real look at it?
