Hi,
thought that I would begin the journal for my ADA Cube garden 30c: 30x30x30cm tank.
After aquascaping for many years and owning several nice tanks I have progressed from standard all in one systems such as Juwel aquariums, to more decoratively considered aquaria, and onto several rimless braceless optiwhites, most recently with my current ea aquascaper 1500 which I love. The Aquascaper tank is pretty flawless, however when a newly established aquascaping store opened up on my doorstep offering ADA products it got me thinking....I’ve never really felt the need to splash out on ADA equipment as there are many more affordable, and still beautifully made aquarium products out there. ADA has however always been the pinnacle, Takashi Amano being the pioneer of the nature aquarium and the biggest name in the aquascaping hobby. The quality of products is market leading and I began feeling a draw to own a set up. I feel after aquascaping for over a decade that I wanted to have a slice of the ADA brand, but it comes at a cost. I therefore began looking at the smaller systems for a more cost effective option that would also offer more rescaping opportunities. Small tanks cost less to buy, less to run and less to fill with hardscape flora and fauna. So the 30c it was, off I popped and ordered one up. The plan was always to buy in stages but due to Covid, this has been a slower process than expected. Anyhow, the first instalment was the tank, garden mat and light unit......purchased early March with a plan to buy cabinet and filter shortly afterwards......
