The Forsaken River

[Lauris]

Hi all,

Starting a new journal here. I has been 2 years since I did my last scape and that one was going pretty solid HERE..

This time I will aim for less maintenance.. so no carpet, no messy moss (maybe a ricardia/pellia moss will fit well).
Plant-wise it will be slow rollers.. a selection of different Anubias, Bucephalandra.. and probably some sort of Vallisneria..

Tech:
Tank + Cabinet: AquaSys230 (12ml optiwhite)
Dimensions: 90x55x53cm
Volume: 230L

Soil-Substrate:
ADA Amazonia v2, ADA PowerSand, ADA La Plata sand, and some of Wio Cimmaron sand to dilute Laplata's brightness

Hardscape:
Few chunks of iron wood
27kg of WIO Elderly Boulders

Other bits and pieces still in delivery -
Light: Chihiros Vivid 2 (10th anniversary)
Filtration: Oase Thermo 850 + Oase 600
Surface Skimmer: at intake
CO2 Reactor: AquaCare 50 External CO2 Reactor
Auto doser with in-line dosing adaptor

RO water + Green Aqua GH Plus, with my to-go fertilizer - APT3 complete

This is still in planning, so it all can and will change when it hits the tank 🙂







I have my holidays sorted.. eat, scape, sleep, repeat..

Good point! I have handful of Anubias Petite to transfer over too, and that is just a 40% portion of what I have pulled out from my old scape. 🙂
