    Re: 2 Feet Rubbish

    I am actually looking out for someone to let go some loose fissiden in the marketplace.
    But in the day when the lights and fan are not on yet, the temperature will go up to 28. Will it be a problem? Air-con are on only when I am home in the evening.

    The 2 plastic pot, on the left is Hemianthus Micranthemoides (Pearl Grass) and on the right is hair grass. The pearl grass is temporary till I fill my Nano. Hair grass was from a failed experiment and still trying to revive it. And yes, both need soil thats why they are in pot.

    Re: 2 Feet Rubbish

    Some updates after 50% water change. Made some minor rearrangement on the right side. This is was I like most of my rubbish tank, can rearrange easily as and when I like to.

    Re: 2 Feet Rubbish

    Added this Long Fin Zebra Danio yesterday. Used to have quite a few before I upgrade my tank which all died when I introduce them too quickly to the new tank which was immediately cycled. Seem like the Long Fin is not as hardy as the normal Zebra. All the normal Zebra survived the migration... Lesson learned, always acclimatized your fish no matter how hardy they are...
