300l of Responsibility

lol, Work hard and build/buy a man cave.

 

Update:

 

Its looking great .i just cant help it gotta ask i know you have co2 injection :bigsmile: , what else are you dosing?

 

@tlchidau - Thanks very much. I'm dosing the full Seachem range as per their online dosing schedule. It's costly but it works for me. I still do the whole bucket brigade wc's so I don't want to try EI on this tank (50% wc's weekly = 150l = 7 buckets carried through the house! I will be trying EI on my new 135l tank.

 

@Hawk,that sounds exactly like me, except a 50% is 300L. I have no need to attend gym anymore and my back is probably messed up already.

 

A few more pics...

 

Yup, my back was pretty wrecked before I started keeping fish so buckets are a real pain. In summer I might just do direct wc's from the hosepipe to make it easier...

 

In the words of my 4 year old "That is AWWWSOME!"

 

I like the Harlequins man!!!

 

its like a bush....sure theres no lions in there @Hawk?

 

:amazed: There's more plant than water in that tank.

:bigsmile: But it looks awesome!

 

@Dinky. Your 4yr old is welcome at my place anytime :blink1:. Thanks for the comment.

 

@Little Pets Potch - I'm a big fan of Harlequin Rasbora. My stepbrother had a few when we were kids and the bug bit back then.

 

At times @HennieRoux all manner of animals could be hiding in my tank but to be honest the pics make it look like there is very little space. I need to post a pic taken through the side glass to show how the plants are actually very low in the front and very high at the back. I unfortunately have buckets of cuttings with no place to plant them! Need to get my new tank!

 

Thanks @Keeganp - As I said in the post before, the pics make it look a lot more dense than it actually is. I would guess I have at least half the tank worth of open space. I'm not called the Jungle King for nothing :laugh:

 

My dream setup. Come december i will be bothering you all the way till my tank looks like that:love::bigsmile:

 

Thanks @tlchidau :embarrest:. You are more than welcome to give me a shout anytime. Glad to help people.

 

@Hawk i know the feeling, i hate throwing away trimmings!

 

Ok, so I added to my bucket of cuttings again last night! Here is a pic of my work in progress...

 

Still a work in progress so a lot of trimming to be done (I have a new tank to solve my cuttings problem :bigsmile but here is a quick pic I snapped this morning:
