I think I will be starting a Journal for the rest of the setup's journey.
For those of you who like to know here are the specifications for the setup.
Tank - An old curved front Aqua One Aspire 130L
Hardscape - Redmoor and Dragonstone, Tropica Aquarium Soil with a small amount of Tropica plant Substrate on the bottom.
Filtration - Built in to the rear of the tank, http://aquaone.co.uk/documents/AquaNano-10032015.pdf
I may have to add a powerhead for better flow and minimise flat spots in the scape.
I am also willing to install an external canister if needed, the original powerhead for the filter no longer works so I have DIY'd a small internal filter to replace as the product has now been discontinued.
Lighting - Original standard LED lighting, not sure of specs.
Chihiros A Series Plus 601
CO2 - A rather large 10kg? tank. Debating whether to place the diffuser in the filter just before the powerhead to help disperse or just have in the tank itself. Any opinions on this please feel free to comment.
Ferts - EI dry salts from APF UK. I may set this up with the Jeboa DP2 auto dosing pump I have been holding for another project.
Fauna - Undecided but most likely lots of shrimps and a large shoal of maybe Celestial Pearl Danios or Boraras brigittae. Something small and full of colour, i'm trying to achieve a larger sense of scale
