The guppies will eat up the larvae even if mosquitoes breed
Thanks, I did up 3 tanks to rush for the new year. This is one of them. In total, planning took about 1month, the actual work - about 2 weeks.
This tank is the simpler tank amongst the 3. Took me about 3 days to setup. Now the top is filled with many plants and for the bottom - the wood are line with moss and more fishes.
Okay, learn something. Cheers.
Avoid sunlight is the No 1 rule. This placement has no exposure to sunlight. The plants top of the tank are selected with little or no light requirement type. (Ikea sells them mostly)
I practice some water change, although not very regiously/frequent, but its about 1/5 change or top up of water every 2 weeks.
Yamato is inside this tank as well - to combat black algae if any
Thus far, the tank has survive till now (since X'mas) without any infestion of algae (finger cross), but I do notice some "gel" like substance forming from the bark of the wood. I simply "fan" them off with my hand, but need to manually remove (using suction water change) them as no filter. But its only once. I guess due to the wood (these are wood taken from the open) - Maybe I should have condition them before using.
