The mini pellia is looking great, it will look great when filled it.
Thanks Ian - is that what's growing amongst the Riccardia?? That's one of the parts I cheated with - got that piece of wood with the moss already established from GeorgeThe mini pellia is looking great, it will look great when filled it.
Looking good mate.
You could slowly pour a bit of water over the moss to ensure it is affixed properly before properly filling. Otherwise it might float away, and your patience will be wasted!
Can't wait to see this full of water though, and to see how your amazing plumbing and CO2 systems comes into play.
Thanks mate I have to say, I've surprised myself - I'm not normally one for waiting, but I'm about at the end of my capacity for watching a damp boxDon't know how I missed this one! This all looks fantastic!! I'm subscribed and looking forward to your updates! I think I'm going to be taking the DSM on my next one for sure. I think I have the patients, I spent e months looking at hard scape before planting my latest tank!!

Can't wait! I've set the photoperiod as follows:Looks fantastic mate. Roll on Saturday. Im eager to see it filled and how your handy acrylic bending turns out.
What percentage will you be running the tiles at

Ummm no dont think its too. I first saw that and thought "14 hours of light " but then read it properly.Can't wait! I've set the photoperiod as follows:
Lights come on at 6am with 4-hour ramp to 100%, then dimming down again from 4pm to be off at 8pm - so 100% from 10am to 4pm... I've got two Colour Plus tiles on there, and they are less intense than the Natural Daylight...too much?

Dont think you need such an early ramp up.
Have you thought about having your main photo period a bit later so you get to see it at its full brightness after working after coming home from work?? Maybe try a 2 hour ramp up in the morning??? Always best to errr on the side of caution with lighting especially when its first set up. Im not clued up as much on the tmc tiles with regards to light output during ramp up and if after a certain percentage it counts as the actual photo period if that makes sense???
And just me personally for the first few weeks not run at full whack just whilst it takes off
Less than that mate - I plan to start at dawn!!Only 24 hours to go
