Aaron's 216l Planted Journal!

[aaronnorth]

Things are finally moving on Aaron... Btw noticed your article in PFK recently (just subbed) well done mate I actually thought you were much older than you appear to be!

The frogbit will be fun. It is a weed!

Yes but it is one of the more manageable weeds and the root systems are IMO quite pretty too!

thanks, i have been hearing tht a lot lol.

Where the heck did you get your wood from? They're fantastic!

Also, what is the floating mass of plants top left? (In the pic at the top of the page)

Oh no Arron you really have wetted my appetite for planted aquariums again. You really have an eye for detail. I have just read through you other thread with the bog wood and I have to say I'm getting an itch. I might just have a go at a small planted, using your methods as I'm really impressed with your work. I'm currently building a large marine system but I see absolutely no reason why I cant have a nice tropical aquarium in the sump area of the stand. I will probably be making a nuisance of myself in the months ahead.
Thanks for rekindling a spark
