Je®vis Red Planet Tank

[Jervis]

This is a new growth (probably sparked by the CO2)... the runner manage to travel underneath the branch to invade the M. hirsuta's territory. Intervention needed

Started dosing this daily supplement yesterday. Just 1 single drop per day... Dennerle product is potent and suitable for larger tanks

Where you get the Dennerle from? Looks very new packing. Usually i saw in the LFS is dusty packing, must have being there for long time.

[blue33]

Most of your diffusor is ADA? How you find them as compare with reactor?

[Quixotic]

Can I get an ID for this cute little plant? I bought it inside a bag filled with water

Fittonia sp., terrestrial plant.

I got mine from NA. Because NA placed these premium products behind their glass counter

Actually I am using one of those $4 diffuser for this tank. Now don't ask me to make a statement comparing a $80 diffuser with a $4 diffuser

Fittonia sp., terrestrial plant.

Thanks Quixotic for the ID... apparently the plant is settling well... new leaves can be seen sprouting out 2 old leaves didn't settle well (can be seen in pix)

[Jervis]

Here's the left side of the tank. I will plant the Fittonia sp. permanently if it continues to show sign of growth.



Added 5 stalks of Downoi last week... been doing well in my tank... they are already tall when I bought them

The right side of the tank...



The hairgrass has finally grow... after dosing CO2 for 9 days. The M. hirsuta is still looking quite pathetic this week



Growth in Mini bolbitis. Extremely slow grower

[Verminator]

I notice you have left those stray strands of HG that venture beyond there wooden boundary, or are they new strands once more?

This tank is coming along very nicely, always inspiring.

I'm back!!!

Let's start with Downoi shall we? They are surviving quite well despite the fact that this tank has been running on a single T5 tube for the past 2 months. Added back the 2nd T5 last week to encourage growth.

Here's a confusing pix... I have no idea where the camera focus is

Updates?

Here's a full tank shot... after 1 1/2 months of silence





Actually not much growth except for the Riccia... the tank has been running on absolute low-tech for the past 2 months.

The Anubias coffeefolia was an adhoc addition

[Jervis]

The amazing Riccia



I can almost see myself inside the bubbles
