I actually went for this light - https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00QIAHRZW/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Should be arriving today along with new filter. Going to take the wood out the tank and set the new light on a timer and hopefully the plants grow over the weekend...
You might be right! It was the only wood I had but it is pretty large, thanks for the advice. I'll be on the hunt for something better and then I can see what is actually in the tank!
I used a peat free soil because on the Walstad wiki it said to use Miracle-go peat free compost, and the steps here stating peat compost was better for retaining nutrients, so worried now how my tank will manage in the future
That chart is very useful! I want to have 2 types of shrimp but was worried about them losing colour. So Ghost shrimp and Red Cherrys will be fine together?
Hello,
I just created my tank last night using the Walstad method (I think).
First time doing this and I really hope my plants survive.
If they grow nicely I would like to add in some shrimp too.
Don't have a filter on it currently because my one has gone walkabouts - was planning on...
Hello,
Had some tanks in the past but nothing for a long time.
Started a planted small tank using the Walstad method and hoping that it grows, eventually to add some shrimp too.
Any tips or things to look out for would be great!
