    Default 33g long community planted. New pics page 4

    Well I shut down 2 of my planted tanks to switch it up and have a completely different concept.

    This new tank will home slower growing plants because with a height of 13" stem plants would have to be trimmed weekly, the plan is for an open scape.

    I will keep Glosso, HC, 4 leaf clover, UG and downoi in the front and in mountains in the back have needle leaf and java fern, aswell abit of Bolbitis.

    Something else I want to keep in there is cardinal tetras and electric blue rams, for the cardinals I plan on schooling 50 plus and the rams maybe 3-4...

    The specs are as follows: using ehiem 2234 & 2236 ecco inline for filtration
    Heater will be a stealth 250w, lighting is a coralife 2 x 65w PC. I will also run a pressurized co2 at 1 bubble every 2 secs. Substrate is ADA Amazonia I and II. And ofcourse the tank is a 33g long.

    Here are some well awaited pics...

    Why not a Hydor ETH Chris? Now that I've used one, I don't think I can use an in-tank heater ever again. So much neater. I guess the answer is the as the PC lights...you probably have it already.

    Yah Gary I will eventually change the heater to the external one, but currently the heater is hidden with some plants so it's not unsightly, I will use an atomizer for co2 dispersion aswell, but have to order it online...

    The thing is this tank already has a black trim so I thought the black heater won't matter! But now you mentioned it why not!
