3 Feet Update

Just an update of my 3 feet tank.

About a month old now.

Added a Madagascar Lace Plant and its flowering!

Very nice! I would think a more 'natural' feel is possible if the borderline between the white sand and the planted section isn't so straight. Maybe you can add some wood or stones to break up the line, or allow some plants to creep across naturally?

still waiting for the moss to grow

looking for some more mid ground plants

Nice, having some rocks and anubias nanas as midground plants would break the rigidity of the borderline, what are the parameters of the tank

**joydiv** · 16th Jan 2006, 23:47

So far have not managed to measure water parameters apart from temperature - 24 to 26 (in air con office)

Trying out a rich base fert with only seachem excel. So far the plants are growing nicely.

Will update again once I have the measuring kit in my office.

Tank's great, just solve the borderline problem

Granite rocks will do very well here imho.

nicely done!!

**StanChung** · 13th Apr 2006, 04:02

hi,
nice growth, layout and colours... is that bga growing in the fg?

**richietay** · 13th Apr 2006, 09:12

white sand making it more obvious. but overall nice setup, lush growth.

**joydiv** · 13th Apr 2006, 23:13

Yup its BGA.

Think its time to remove the fast grower. It has been running for 4 months now.

Dose with excel thrice a week and micros once a week.

Started with a very rich substrate. Wonder how much longer before I have to start dosing through the water.
