Java Moss is the straight one, Flame moss is the curly one. The plant on the right that looks like lily pads is Brazilian Pennywort (Hydrocotyle...
As far as I remember it, the poly is there to smooth out any imperfections in your stand. So if there's a bump it will be compressed in the poly...
Wow, that all sounds like serious overkill. You should be able to get away with just a sheet of polystyrene. Unless you want the isoboard as...
Nice work there Wrenchy, it looks really neat. For the fans you should easily be able to get hold of either 12V or 220V fans. I've seen both at...
The condensation might still run down the sides of the tank, and it'll mean the wood is always wet. That's why you need a really good coat of...

I've seen those LED spots at the Chinese market in Centurion. I think they were R280 for the 10w and R340 for the 20w. They had them up to a 100w...
I'm currently using Sera root tabs and Seachem Flourish comprehensive and Seachem Flourish Excel, with reasonable growth. But that's in a tank...

I've got an Eheim heater in my 3ft that's mounted horizontally and it's been like that for 4 years. No issues of any kind. There's no need to...
