George's 65cm Natural Aquario

Hi all

Long story short....

Neglected this tank for about 4 weeks and moved into a new flat to be nearer my new job.

Thanks to Dan Crawford for helping me move. 🙂

I'm awaiting fibre optic broadband so will be a lot more active on UKAPS soon!! :

Cheers
George

Hey George🙂. Amazing tank. But then this would be a totally normal thing for someone of your caliber. Great photography too🙂..top notch. Looking forward to following this.
 
Where is the seat/sofa looking at the tank ????

I end up quite often not looking at TV, but staring at tank, mesmerised by green and waying plants and shoaling fish.
 
Hi all,

At last I managed to get some time to take some photos of my home tank. I'm really happy with the progress so far. It's been trouble-free with no algae and I only spend about 1hr per week on this.

I'm using hard tap water which bugs me a bit with the scale build-up on the aquarium glass and glassware, but it's a minor issue and nothing a bit of elbow grease won't remedy.

I've switched from the in-tank CO2 diffuser to an inline diffuser (Up Aqua) on the filter inlet (Fluval G3). CO2 is almost 2BPS giving a lime green in the 4dKH drop checker.

I have plans to add a few more crypts, Vallis nana, and another carpeting plant to mix with the hairgrass - probably E. tenellus.

I'm doing 'scape after 'scape lately with work and I was worrying that my passion for my own hobby would suffer, but actually I'm more excited than ever about aquascaping. 🙂

Cheers,
George

Amazing such a great looking tank takes so little time - looks lovely.

It’ll be great to see all the other aquascapes you’ve been working on - are AquaGro going to release any pictures anytime soon?
