all the anubias has been cultivated for months without any algae. Except some spot algae on the glass.

That's interesting. My Anubias are prone to spot algae and BBA infestation.
Is your CO2 injection high that prevents this?
What about those Anubias you have that are now very close to the water surface?

Keep us updated.

It will look good when your foregrass start creeping.

I am guessing your cabinets should be pretty strong to be able to hold that amount of weight including the tank water volume.

nope. just a simple cabinet tank. same as the NA display tank opposite the counter.
but the glass is 12mm thick

**torque6** · 24th Apr 2008, 00:34

Eddy,
wow, you got the same cabinet as NA!!

**Fei Miao** · 24th Apr 2008, 09:14

Gosh it looks good!

Do you worry about the weight from the rocks on the cabinet?

**Cheong123** · 24th Apr 2008, 15:42

Hi IEddyl... where did you get those nice rocks from? appreciate other bros to help provide some info where to buy nice rocks in S'pore too.

**lEddyl** · 24th Apr 2008, 19:35

FeiMao,
I'm not seriously worry about the weight. The mass is still the same right? (more rock = lesser water)
The tank is also heavy at 12mm thick. No choice for safety reason as the tank is quite low. My 1yr old niece can easy knock it.

Cheong123,
Rocks bought from NA, Farms at Pasir Ris and AQ Members
especially one of the mod. he store plenty of rocks

**KeIgO86** · 25th Apr 2008, 01:09

More rock = less water. But rock is much much denser than water. Haha. Nice tank.

Are you cardinals always hiding amongst the rocks and plants or do they come out to swim in the open space?
