Simple Pico Scape

[lucasjiang]

Helped my friend do a simple scape for his 15cm cube tank. The space constraint made maneuverability in the tank limited, hence decided to do something easy and more maintenance free.



Flora: Crypt. Parva, Crypt. Beckettii, Crypt. Wendtii, Riccia Fluitans

Fauna: As of present none, any recommendations?

Lights: Sunlight coming in from the back

Any comment and suggestions are welcome

Any fertiliser in the gravels? Think the crypts are to big for this tank. .

Endler guppy look nice... rasbora also not bad.. all small fish..
But your plant if not enougg fertiliser will say good bye..

No fertiliser, but I am dosing ferts weekly. Im not sure about the max size of the crypts but I will see how it goes.

Yea will dose ferts. Used to kept crypt parva and wendtii without dosing ferts and they were fine, so shouldnt die, but growth will be slow I guess.

Currently no, but will add one when I find one small enough.

5-6 cherry shrimps would be suitable inhabitants for the pico tank, they will perform the dual role of eating algae/dead leaves and in turn producing waste to create additional nutrients for the plants.

Thanks for the suggestion, i might consider chocolate or golden back yellow shrimps.
