Thanks very much mate the substrate in the cave tank is black flourite sand, I swear by it and it lasts forever ( so it says anyway ) my new set up behind the the rocks is built up high with black flourite substrate but you cant see that, the substrate at the front is just normal stuff that came with the tank but I really liked the look of it and wanted to use it and for it to be different from the other, I did put a couple of staurogene repens in the front substrate just to see if it would grow ( I just like doing some experiments with plants) but its growing no problem because of the ferts probably and the co2, I have to say thou I do think the plants would grow without the co2 just alot slower, I like my tanks to grow fast especially new set ups, that's why I use co2 mate.SxAqua wrote: ↑Tue May 05, 2020 9:49 am Wow Stevie ! Late comer to the thread, but glad Im glad I came across it.
The Chilid tank blew me away. I couldnt visualise it with just the rock in. But as soon as it was planted I thought Wow ! Then I got to page 7 and was like, holy cow . Great job, really ! Really like the new set up too, very intreagued !
Just a few questions. I noticed your base in the cave tank is quite a bit deeper than the latest one. Is that an illusion or is it something your not too bothered about? What did you use in the cave tank for the base ? And did I read you have a c02 setup?
