***My 1st 1.5ft Tank***

Here is my 1st Planted tank. But it does not grow well at all.
Usually placed beside my window where there are 2 hrs of sunlight coming in and then the rest of day is in direct sunlight.

1) Normal River Sand

2) Azoo Base fert (those round round thing, i place a few near the root of the plants)

3) Seachem EXCEL - add every alt day

4) Nutri Liquid Fert - add every week

5) 2 DriftWood

6) Fauna i do know is wat type , LFS say it is durable

7) Water Temp abt 29

8) Hang on filter, only bio ring.

9) No livestock inside

it seems like the plant on the right side are windelov java fern. you cant burried them like how other plants do, you tied them to wood or any other thing.. but do not burry them into the soil, if not they will rot away.
and for the plant in the back left, i don't think its aquatic.

bro, do some homework on "durable" plants....wat are they, wat they require blah blah blah....dun rely on the lfs towkay.....

then yr plants will do well....

Confirm the plant(fern) on the left side is not aquatic someone already posted asking for the id of it. It will rot in a matter of time in about weeks or max 2mth. Not sure if sumsum80 took your pic or u 2 are both the same person. Please dun buried the windelov java fern like Evo said it will rot try tying it to your driftwood with some fishing line or thread.

ya.. i took his pic .. cos i see the plant like quite nice... but dunno wat type is it .. btw, it a nice tank .. but dunno how long it will last
