So here goes. I have a 1000l tank (ex marine) but with sump holes etc blanked off and runing the following equipment -
tetratec external pump.
hydor Karelia stream.
2 x T8 Iights.
air pump running various air stones.
Current stocking is as follows -
2 x 3in silver sharks
2 x 7in Tin foil Barbs
1 x 8in comon plec
1 x 8in salifin plec
1 x ghost knife fish
20 x rasbora
so a bit of a mixed bag stocking wise but it's made up of fish that I have homed for people leaving the hobby so although not ideal it is what it is.
So looking forward the plan is to rip out the plastic plants. Add a few large branches which are currently curing/cleaning in a dustbin of water with bark removed and then get planting. I will update thread with pictures and more detailed plans soon.
ideas and suggestions welcome.
cheers Chris
