EvoZ's 422 scape.

Noticed that my previous thread is kinda long already so i started a new one... had been really busy and didn't had time to update.. so as of today, the tank is almost 2 months old.. plants are bubbling everyday and trimming is required every 2 weeks.. my taiwan mosses are growing so fast and thick that every month of trimming would leave me with roughly ~5 tubs of taiwan moss.. gosh..

Another thing is that, my HC has not grown at all even after planting for 2 months.. just last week, i planted glosso over some empty spaces and they are already covering the foreground pretty fast..

Heres a pic of my tank when its just 2 weeks old.. below pics shows the growth after 6 weeks..

Apologies for the cloudy tank, just did WC and trimming of moss and lots of dirt are stirred up..

Thanks bro, i use lushgro AQUA and kh2po4 for macro and seachem iron, lushgro Micros and excel for micro dosing.. i am dosing with EI method and usually overdose a little cause i have high plant mess..

I do plan to covert to full dry fets.. need to find time to visit lushgro's HQ to buy CaNo3(calcium nitrate) since kno3 has been banned.. right now 500ml of lushgro AQUA can only last ~1.5 months since i dose roughly 3x 30ml per week..
And lushgro AQUA does not contains Po4 which is a little troublesome to dose kh2po4 seperately.. other liquid ferts are just too expensive in the long run.. :o

nice scape! How did you manage to keep your shrimps alive with cichlids in your tank? The last time i introduced rams into my tank, my shrimp population went extinct under a week!
