Inspired by Aquascape at Sams

Hi all
Inspired by the stunning HC tank at Sam's by some of the folk from here, I decided to do a minature version of it too...

Last Saturday

 

Last night I added the black background and took this pic.
Can see the growth already....

 

Bud, did you enrich the virgin Flourite at all ?

 

Hi Trevor
Did nothing to the Flourite, but dosing with Flourish and Flourish Exel.

 

Yeah, next time I would suggest adding various goodies below the Flourite to speed things up, as its dying to absorb what you give it..earthworm castings, gunasol, Osmocote, to name a few options... that's the beauty of Flourite...

Thanks for the compliments on Sams tank, I'm sure the various long suffering maintainers appreciate it ...

 

Thanks a stack Trevor!
Still new to this planted thing...so all advice sponged up!

 

lol, no pun intended of course !

Yeah, also new to me most of this..

I see you joined APSA yonks ago, amazing how things have changed.. also went through this time out/left behind experience..

 

Nice to someone inspired by the tank.
I'd break the HC into smaller pieces and spread it out more.
It will carpet a lot quicker.

 

Gonna be good!
