nano - 323 for 8

chump54 · 18 Oct 2009

Hi all, thanks to TDI for the tank n bits. been meaning to put this up for a while.

Dennerele Nano 25 x 25 x 30 cm
EI ferts + easycarbo 1.5 (ish) mls/day

water changes every other day - bit of a surface film at the mo

started on september 27th so been running 3 weeks ish. I was scaping it while listening to england play south africa, hence the title... might change it once I see how it feels once it has grow in.

hardscape
ADA Seiryu Stone
Heather wood

plants

HC - from my window sill growing emersed for about 6 months... I'm amazed it lasted and has grown on under water :thumbup:

rotala nanjenshan - thanks Sam
Blyxa japonica
Eleocharis acicularis - oh thanks again Sam 😉
Hygrophila corymbosa `Siamensis` - we'll see if this gets too big?

I'm thinking about some moss for the wood not sure if the wood is too thin though.

oh and using the tank the 'wrong' way round as I'm not too keen on the curved edges.

cheers
Chris

quick update

not superfast growth but as it's only easycarbo, I'm quite pleased :thumbup:

added some cherry shrimp too.

Looks great :thumbup:

What light fitting is that?

chump54 · 9 Nov 2009

oh now thats a question... I assume its the standard light that comes with the Dennerele nano tanks as I got this one from TDI-Line but I think it's all standard.

Cheers

looking good 😀

the nanjeshan looks good 😉 its my fave plant in my tank

chump54 · 9 Nov 2009

thanks Sam

It really is a nice plant and has grown into a beautiful shape without any interference from me, which is a good thing, I'm not looking forward to the first trim, I ruined my rotala green a few times 🙄

I had a dennerle tank earlier. so i know the lighting etc. what you have is great without CO2. and the scape looks algae free which is nice. well done! :thumbup:

chump54 · 10 Nov 2009

Thanks Viktor, I have been inspired by your nano ADA to add some moss to the wood. 😀 not sure if the wood might be too thin and look a bit odd... I'll try it and see :thumbup:

Tank looks awesome, the scapes on here just keep getting better and better :thumbup:

Can't believe I missed this one - great little tank, lovley piece of artwork on the shelf ! No CO2 seems to work well in my nano aswell. Congrats - Tom

chump54 · 12 Nov 2009

thanks Tom,

Your tank is looking good too, nice moss!!

I've just tied some fissidens fontanus to the wood. what a wonderfully delicate plant... thanks to Heather (oatfish). I've seen pictures but they don't really show the scale.
