Hey, so my tank came during the week and I've gathered a few bits of pieces and some vague ideas. Thought I may as well got on with the journal now, rather than later. Mainly pictures for the moment!
3L ADA Aquasoil Amazonia
500ml ADA Aquasoil Amazonia Powder
500ml ADA Powersand Special
Thanks to Aquajardin for these!
JBL Regulator
JBL Solenoid
JBL Bubble Counter (needs fixing)
Thanks to my boss for these!
And finally D-D Purple Aquascaping Putty
Yes, purple! Luckily I have lots of Aquasoil to hide it.
Slate - 17p
'Spider' Wood - 50p
Got these from work today, the wood was just bits on the ground and in the bottom of the trays that had come off the large pieces! Not bad at all if I can create a nice feature out of this with my Aquascaping putty. Not sure how I should really go about this, if it's what I want for my scape in fact! If you guys have any ideas how I should go about arranging the wood, go me a shout. Also if there's anything that I'd be better off using rather than the putty. Obviously putty and slate will not be visible in the tank anyway, just a support.
And finally the tank. Sorry for the background aha .
Shopping list (off the top of my head):
Drop checker
Diffuser
Replacement bubble counter
Rock?
Plants
CO2 bottle
Solenoid transformer
Light timer
Maybe going to get my Dad to make an ADA stand, not sure where the tank is going yet
ADA Brighty K, Step 1, Special Lights in the future perhaps
Probably missed some stuff off but yeah.
Anyway, just to finish off, would like an opinion on this rock we have at work as I've never had any decent aquascaping rock before. Going to have to break it up before I used it in my tank, but wanted to know if it's any good.
Cheers for reading, may add to this as I usually forget to include everything first time, oh yeah I hope to add CRS and CBS to this tank. Hopefully going to order some from Germany, but that's far down the line!
