600mm Tank

Hi, where did you get your Alternanthera reineckii 'Mini' from? And are you dosing iron, or do the leaves stay this red with Excel, Seachem Flourish, P and K? Also, is that C. Parva in front of the pellia? How's the Bucephilandra 'Deep Purple' doing? Thanks.

Hey hi. I got the plant from petmart in serangoon north. You can find the plant easily at c328 too. It's in a tropica 1.2 grow series. So far the color hasn't change since I planted it. I dose additional iron using seachem iron. It respond well with my usual dosing of excel and other seachem products. So far looking great and getting taller as time go by.

Yup, that's a c. Prava. So far no issue with it apart from its slow growth. Its slow and stable and I recently found a new runner shoot emerge elsewhere in the tank.

The bucep are doing well, spreading more leaves and growing slow and steady. Leaves are still in great colors.

Cheers,
Harry

bro comet, may i know what's your excel regiment on this tank? Whats the monthly damage?

[comet]

Hey. I dose 0.6ml per day. Using a bottle to squirt it. I have 2 tanks to dose excel with. I refill them with 500ml size of excel. The cost is around 2 red note ( if I remember correctly). Which last me around 3-4 months.

Realize I haven't update my tank for some time. This is taken when it was 11 months old.

Nice progress log of your tank just to check, will your glosso grow vertically once they root to the soil?

Saw the first post, like your room setup a lot!
Just curious, what is the width of your 4 ft tank?

A few of them did grow vertically. I just cut off the long ones and it don't seems to grow tall again.

Thanks thanks! My 4 feet tank is 1 feet wide. Custom made to fit into the weird corner of my room.

Hey bro. Nice setup. Can share what filter you using?

I am using an Eden 501 for this tank. The output isn't strong enough at all for this tank. But is sufficient for my shrimps and boraras.

I place them both on 1 side. Intake located at the back of the tank, while the output is in the front part.
