Kitchen Scape

[Mattyduk]

Am doing my second ever tank.

This is for the kitchen so will hopefully contain Guppys etc for the kids.

It is a n Arc 35 tank.

Saw these rocks in local fish shop. Love the marking & the texture. The one on the right reminds me of holidays I had as a kid when I was living in Norway. There a mountain range called "Jotunheimen"

Would love a really lush carpet maybe HC but will most likely be Helferi will see what shop has tomorrow

Will be using columbo florabase just using the gravel to play about with layout.

I like!!! I like the gravel too... shame it's going!

Planted this up couple of weeks ago. Also picked up a small aka cheap CO2 kit.

Ended up planting Helferi & some of cuts from my main tank. CO2 makes a massive difference

Will post pics later after its first trim.

Pre trim

Ignore the bit of moss that is an experiment and also that it is over grown

Nice start.
Where did you get the Florabase from? Locally, or Tinternet

 

[Mattyduk]

From a guy on here. They do sell locally but bit pricey.

And the local shop would be ?

Maidenhead aquatics and I think Goldfishbowl does it too. Actually I am quite impressed with the goldfishbpwl for hardware type stuff.
