So I just wanted to jump on the tank journal band wagon. This is my newly started 40g planted.
3 x sunburst platys
3 x mickey mouse platys
1 x hitch hiker snail that came home from lfs
Co2 injected 5lb can, aquatex regulator.
Aqueon led light with some hacks added on
fluval 300w heater
260 gph sub pump...forget the brand
10ish gallon sump filtration filled with carbon, bio balls, sponge and bio cubes.
sub state is black and white sand with fluorite dark buried.
Paramaters
pH 7.5
kh 7
gh 7
temp 74 f
ammo 0.0
nitrite 0.0
nitrate 0.0
That's about it for now. Just getting her started and hope for the best. For anyone that is wondering that java fern is planted in the substrate....but not for long. I have to tie it off to the driftwood in the next little bit. Just haven't had the time. oddly enough though. the roots have moved above the substrate to get into open water. Suppose that makes the plants smarter than I am.
