That's my kind of tank.
If you don't mind me asking what do you feed this tank fertiliser wise.

Still gorgeous.crypt tank is still happily providing calm enjoyment to us and the inhabitants some 6 years since planting
Very simple, Nothing more than the fish food plus 1 bps Co2 directly into the filter inlet for 6 hrs in the morningThat's my kind of tank.

And yet it works. Food for thought for some of us that like to ~ "overly complicate things" 😆Very simple
Yep, big tank, deep substrate and nothing messed with very much… I’ve found 60cm tanks to be far harder to get stableWhen @John q asked the question, I thought "I bet he just uses the fish poop"! Nice to see such a long term stable system.
Well there’s nothing wrong with getting right stuck in and playing around with things! This scape just serves as a reminder that there are other ways 😉And yet it works. Food for thought for some of us that like to ~ "overly complicate things" 😆
Hi there.Hello! In case anyone was wondering, yes, this long term crypt tank is still happily providing calm enjoyment to us and the inhabitants some 6 years since planting. Which means the substrate is now at least 20 years old! How did that pass so quickly…. The 2 x T5 tubes are seriously old as well.
Don't be fooled people, aquatic gardening can be easy and low maintenance if that suits…😊

Thank you! It always nice to know that sharing such things adds value. I’m a big proponent of an aquascaping shouldn’t be so hard approach unless we deliberately choose a particular challenge.👍Lovely update, this was such an inspirational scape for me ans still enjoy a cryptocoryne dominated tank. Such an unforgiving species!
