    My name is Ruan.
    I stay in PE and have been keeping fish since I was a young boy. :p
    My wife and I moved into a new place recently and I have acquired a 3ft tank again.
    I stumbled apon the forum whilst searching for some inspiration on planted tanks.
    Great forum, I look forward to learning some more in this ever growing hobby.
    Cheers,
    Ruan.

    Hey, thanks guys.

    Well at the moment..., erm..., There is no setup. All I have is a 3fttank and wooden Cabinet, some black sand and a few pieces of slate.
    Will look if I have a pic of the setup.

    Ahh here we go:
    What I have, I'm hoping to do a planted setup.

    Welcome. You planning to cycle the tank for the required 6 weeks or speed it up with Cycle or something?

    Thanx guys.
    Yeah, the cabinet was a quick DIY. Since the car-scene runs deep,:bigsmile:, I used wood from the crates that VW use to import their engines. :bigsmile:

    I will cycle it for the full 6 weeks. :smile:

    Thank you! Well basically looking for a good LFS that can supply me with plants and lots of them.
