Bro, i think smaller tank displays smaller leaves of plant will look better. Like moss etc.
gave up on the previous tank.. too small liao..
now trying another mini tank..
HC cannot survive... so transferred some plants from my 2 feet tank to this mini tank..
6x6x7 inches..
gravel is GEX
forground plant is APP
background plant is Tennulles
Hopefully the APP and Tennulles will grow out nicely..
enjoy..

The passion for aquascaping and apistogramma never fade away
This tank is also very smallOriginally Posted by fireblade
Mind sharing with us some equipments such as lighting and filtration?
light is 13W PL light
there will be no filter.
fertilizer think will be using Schem Excel and Flourish :>
will make tank as low tec as possible...
tank is in the office, so have to be as low profile as possible..
inspired by me?
I hope mine will be alive.....
a bit lar, but more inspired by bro Jervis tank..
so inspired that the tank also got a leak..
I already have a tank in the office that I tried to get the HC to grow...
but failed 2 times liao..
initially the tank is smaller, 6x4 inches now this tank is 6x6 inches , square tank think got a little more space to play with but it is leaking now... don't know wanna remove everything and repair the tank or not...
Sigh....

Poor fellow, after arranging every things nicely and neatly and discover it was leaking, I can see from the picture that the silicon was very badly done up. Try to repair and restart all over again. Work hard bro.
that was done by me.. :P
the black frame actually drop out , so anyhow stick.. but I've removed those silicon already.. hehe
btw, leaking is another portion...
maybe convert this to land plant tank...
day 2 of setup and photo taken at different view..
looks like the leak stopped if I don't disturb the tank..
blade,
APP abit too rough for small tanks, cos leaves too big, by the way, i thought your previous project was also a nano trying to grow HC emmersed ?) so move from nano to nano is it ?
From nano to pico
HC doesn't grow lay...
started melting... but another half I put in a container seems like growing well.. but before it start to creep, some turned brown.. sianz...
maybe because I never change water and no fertilizer added
got some submerse HCs
changed the APPs to HC
hope they will grow in the tank...
Jervis, think I should termed mine as a pico tank instead of nano.. :P got mixed up with the matric system..
the plants looked yellow though.. wonder if it is because not enough nutrients..
till now I still have not dose any fertilizer or CO2..
enjoy the photo..
Yes yellowish leaves is a sign of nutrient deficiency... why not dose some nutrients to keep them happy? Do it in moderation
HC looks real loose, you added submerged ones i suppose.
yes .. added submerged ones...
hopefully they can grow nicely...
will try to dose fertilzier and excel starting from tomorrow..
just added 4 drops of flourish and excel .. :>
hope those unwanted stuff won't appear..
HC thrives with NPK doses and you can try dennerle planta gold 7. it really help my hc creep. bump up the light and co2 too.
thanks but this setup is gone...
please see the new thread.
