Well, here I am. I've been doing marines the last 8 years and keeping fish for the last 15 years so it's time I had a change!
I can't keep my hands out of my tanks, constantly fiddling with some equipment or moving something about. I usually have a big re-scape every three to four months, I also change many fish/corals in the process so planted tanks will help me with my OCD. I can see me stripping the tank down every three to four months, I do have plenty of ideas I want to try too!
I bought a TMC Signature 60x45x30. I had previously owned the 60x45x45 marine version and thought it was excellent. I also love the look of shallow tanks.
Tank - TMC Signature 60x45x30
Filtration - Fluval G3
Co2 - JBL Proflora u402 + Additional EasyCarbo
Fertilisation - Tropica Premium + Specialised liquids
Soil - ADA Amazonia
Hardscape - Mini landscape rock and Redmoor rootwood
Lighting - TMC Grobeam 1500 x2
Glassware - Cal Aqua 13mm inlet and outlet
Diffuser - UP inline atomiser
Heater - Hydor 300w inline heater
Without further ado, here's some pictures...

I'm not that great at photography at all, I have a Nikon D5200 so I have the tools but no idea how to use it. I also need some new lenses so any advice welcome of course.
As a final note, I will be extremely happy if my tank turned out half as good as some of the tanks on here, I will put up my plant list soon, I have a few ideas but noting concrete just as yet.
