"Little Sampah" Planted Tank

[dave6238]

Didn't realise aquascaping can be so much fun until i get into it. This is my first attempt using a decom 3'x1.5'x2' tank with bogwood, driftwoods, 1 medium-sized rock, mini fissidens, ferns, nanas n buceps to create a little jungle. Here is how the end product look like....

Boss dave, for the white nana, I noticed that it does better with as little light as possible. If under strong light, the new leaves are green with fine white specks instead of more white. This is my observation though

Ur planted tank no Yamato shrimp ar. Ha... surprisingly still clean... or u still using organic sugars... and must change lots of water. Ha... Good.

co2 injection less effective gassing off running through trickle trays. Why dun use canister filter?

At first got 10 yamato n 5 yellow shrimps but think AA ate them ... only top up water once every 2 days due to evaporation caused by fan n wc 10% weekly...

This tank is converted from fh tank so still using the multi tray filter. No space n no money for a canister lah so chin chye lor...

Impressive for 1st attempt. as what washywashy mentioned, I've also kept my white nana for very long.. I'm now putting it in my pleco tank which is almost black out except one small rectangle hole on tank top.. The mamas are still growing and growing with full white leafs.

Thanks bro.... maybe i will reposition them to another part of the tank which is darker n shaded by bigger plants so that they dun get so much light...
