how do you guys change water in the office? Pails? How to do maintenance like scrape algae, etc? Won't there be a mess on the carpet?

Only one thing, all those who keep planted tank in the company run the risk of being retrenched[]

Cos boss may think that we are too free..

But seriously, nice setup. Hope those hairgrass will grow fast and those purple plant wil turn green fast.

nice planted u have ... but i would recommend u to have the driftwood tied up with riccia, java moss or christmas moss ... it will be lagi better !!!!

Thanks for the nice words.

hwchoy,
I'm using the used 5 gallon mineral bottle to to change water. Carrying that bottle around is less obvious than carry a pail. Dun ask me why. Since it's only been a week since the setup, I've yet to change water.

Nicky,
During maintenance, make sure boss is not around to see you. Th purple plant is Lobelia cardianlis. You're rite, it should turn green. It's purple as in the emerse form.

Pipsqueak,
The plant is Crinum calamistratum.

Tranquilizer,
I already have a Xmas moss background. In fact I've though of doing wat u suggested but I would like to have a cleaner look on the wood. Thanks for you suggestion anyway.

Not really, my program manager was inspired and set up a 4ft (home) 1 mth after seeing mine, and now, there are a total of 4 fish tanks in my wing.
