Much better pics Steve and i have to say it really does look good, love the star grass and a huge fan of helferi .... keep the updates coming mate.

The P Stellata can be propagated like any other stem plant mate


Oh and if you have any spare star grass once you trim, you can always send it my way

looks nice mate, you're gonna have to chop those stems when they settle in and they are gonna get big.

 

[Ps3Steveo]

yer =D all 3 tanks look good... this one could do with a little more growing but its defo a great looking tank allready =]

Yeah I need to do some trimming and re planting, thanks mate

The stellata looks great, I put a pot's worth in mine today but not sure how well it'll do with the light I have. We'll see. Where did you get your Limnophila Aromatica from? I bought some of it and put in today but it doesn't look at all how I expected it to (though that may just be the emersed growth), yours looks more like what I was expecting.

Probably be fine mate mines low light, got the Limnophila from PLants Alive.

Thanks mate, will get propagating

I know mate, they're getting taller every day at the moment, the only one that looks like it needs to settle so far is the Star Grass, melting a little.

Thanks for the comments guys

Whoop whoop, stock arrives tomorrow. Pic's coming very soon.

Did stock arrive mate?... i presume it was the CRS you ordered?

 

[Ps3Steveo]

No the CRS went in to Cuban Delight as its more mature and the Florabase will give off some ammonia so I didn't wanna kill them lol, there's loads of cheery shrimp in here tho and they're ok so once the CRS start breeding I'll put some in here I think. I got 3 Scarlet Badis for this scape yesterday, they're in and settled now so tonight I'll put some pic's up as the lights don't come on till 3pm.

 

[Ps3Steveo]

Right guys, here's the stock, well one of them, he hides in this little spot on the side of the tank so I can get good pictures of him. Still need a decent camera tho, there's three in total and they've all settled in nicely and are enjoying their dense plant growth.

 

[JenCliBee]

Looking good Steve, haven't a clue about badis but they do look a nice fish .... what size do they get and tank size/conditions do they like?


Get some pics up of the crs aswell .

 

[Ps3Steveo]

Cheers mate, they're quite hardy fish actually, males are territorially aggressive to other males, they form little hidey holes they defend. So far the three of them have been fine tho and they're loving the constant pearling from the stems, looking like a really clean and healthy tank so far (touch wood). CRS are in the other scape, when I saw one today I got the camera and ran back and she was gone.

They look nice Steve! How big are they?

 

[Ps3Steveo]

They're around the 2cm mark, they wont get much bigger I don't think mate.

 

[ian]

did you buy em online then? along with the shrimp?

I'm thinking of getting some Shrimp from AE, didn't know if you knew anywhere a bit cheaper?

 

[Ps3Steveo]

What shrimp are you after mate, CRS you wanna go here. But make sure you tell them the day you'll be in to have them delivered. I got 3 Badis and 5 CRS from them and they were double bagged, heat packed, bubble wrapped in a polystyrene box in a cardboard box lol. They had some shrimp on there not long ago that were £250 for 10 lol, they were stunning tho, if your a millionaire lol.

cheers for that, i have just had a scan through and they have Tiger shrimp at a good price!

They also have Ninjas in...they are awesome! I have some of those a few years back, but they just get camouflaged so you can't see em, so they are a waste of money.lol

 

[Ps3Steveo]

Lol I know mate I had some a while back and came to the same conclusion I nearly bought a group of tigers from there for Cuban Delight but ran over budget
