now, no need to upgrade tank and can join in, then I will join for sure :P
thinking whether should I get my hands on some mini pellia and UG.....
I would go with UG as I like the look but I have read it is not that easy to care for. Maybe you can give it a try?

Do update us in the thread on your changes, since your tank is now the first to be established!

My thoughts so far:

Tank: 1 Feet Crystal glass Cube
Filtration: GEX M Hang-on Filter - (owned)
Media: Biohomme red, Sponge, MrAqua CR(M) - (owned)
Chiller: DAZ Hang on Fan(S)
CO2:Yes
Lighting: 24W PL Illumax - (owned)
Substrate: Gex Soil
Fertilisation: WonderGro Macro & Micro - (owned)

Flora: Mini Pelia, Fissidens, Xmas moss, UG and some stem plants to be confirmed
Fauna: Thinking of a killiefish or Cherry Shrimps

Scape: Should be a forest looking scape with Lava rocks and small DW

Hope to hear some advice from bros here..
Crystal glass tank! Yours is the cream of the crop liao! Haha. And you have all the equipment to start, this is good. Looks like UG is starting to be a favourite. Killefish is going to be interesting if you choose that.

I suggest that you take some pictures of your equipment after your tank comes in, so that we can all learn from your setup and how your equipment looks like. It is invaluable information for those just starting out in this hobby.

It would be better for everyone to pitch in their comments on your hardscape, after you have positioned your lava rocks and small driftwood. A picture is worth a thousand words!

Don't need stress lah bro.. Just have fun, this is not a competition.
Hand itchy is a very good thing!

I am buying my tank from my usual LFS. But for orders that we need to buy in bulk, mod has told me that AF will help. So once everyone's set up list is done, I will collate the information and submit to mod. If we do not have the quantity and want to go on a shopping trip ourselves, then that is okay also. We can take a vote and meet at a LFS that you guys frequent.

What about replacing your current tank with the 1 footer?!
Is the 1 footer a cube?
