So after staying away from the hobby for more than 3 years, I've decided to come back into it after seeing TGM's closing down sale. Have had success with growing plants and keeping fish and shrimp alive in the past with CO2, decided to keep the budget "moderately" low this time by going non-CO2.

Also inspired by George Farmer's low tech non-co2 scape, going to try to replicate that to a certain extent.

Equipment:

Tank: Do! Aqua 60P (60cm x 30cm x 36cm)
Filter: Eheim Ecco Pro 130
Lights: Chihiros RGB 60cm (on order, ETA 2 weeks)
Hardscape: ADA Aquasoil Amazonia Powder 9L
Substrate: Seiryu Stone + Spider Wood
Flora: Rotala sp "Green" (back right corner), Ludwigia repens rupin (mid background), Staurogyne repens (near stones), and Helanthium tenellum "Green" (carpet)
Fauna: Green Neons OR Boraras Briggatae, Orange Sakura Shrimp

Current hardscape as below, will let the wood sink into the substrate a little to bury it a bit and hide the "trunk" that's visible now, same with the rocks. Let me know if anything can be improved or if you have any tips in general!

Still waiting for the tank and lights to arrive, will be slow progress on this till they both arrive. Have drawn an outline of the tank's dimensions on the box below to give an idea of scale.
