Aaron's 216l journal!

awesome, but wont this still be pretty high lighting?

1WPG T5... it will be half of what I have now so I can run it without CO2 easily enough, however that decision is still too be made... ok I know I theoretically would need to do weekly water changes still but the growth rates wont be as fast so I can still leave it longer without too much going wrong.

I have just ordered the 2 x 28w T5 light

Prepare for life to be so much more simpler 😀

Thanks for looking, Aaron

That looks really nice that, Aarron. If you keep your dosing at the same level and the co2 too I wouldn't be surprised if it gets even more lush!

 

[George Farmer]

Jungle chaos! Love it!

 

[aaronnorth]

Thanks George & Gareth


My new light come today, and for £50 is perfect 🙂
both tubes have there own switch which is useful.
The tubes are 10 000k & 6500k too. I am glad i have put a 10 000k in there now as it is a much better colour balance.



EDIT: Oh and I have just ordered some C.Undulata from plantedbox to replace the stems 😉

I finally ordered some Cryptocoryne Undlata to replace the stems, i got them from plantedbox.com who are top class :good:



the echinodorus was recieved as part of a secret santa on UKAPS, so thanks! 🙂



Thanks, Aaron
