Joshlikesfish Posted June 20, 2010 Report Share Posted June 20, 2010 Hey guys. This is my first attempt at a planted tank =D Used corse play sand from Mitre 10 as the substrate. Added a rock and some wood as the hardscape, will hopefully grow some fern on this =D Used corse play sand from Mitre 10 as the substrate. Added a rock and some wood as the hardscape, will hopefully grow some fern on this =D My original plan was to grow ambulia, cabomba, java fern and java moss. Due to the lack of this at the LFS, i got 10 unidentified plants haha. I'm running a ALEAS HOB, Stingray internal and a heater. And this is my attempt at DIY CO2 Hopefully move my baby rams into there in a few weeks =] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joshlikesfish Posted June 20, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2010 Oh, i also took the stems, grass, java moss and ferns from my other tank. Anybody willing to trade Cabomba/Ambulia for some swordtails or something feel free to PM me =D I'm also willing to pay for plants Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
