guess what I have been doing

I am going to hunt some more small stones to scape with too but for now the tank is up and running and hopefully starting to cycle

The idea is that kuhli loach can hide in that "cave"

The plants in here are Anubias (Barteri, nana and petit I belive), bolbitis heudelotii, limnophila sessiliflora, Ludwigia palustris, Rotala bonsai, Pogostemon helferi, Cryptocroyne wendtii (Green), Hygrophila siamensis, one other ludwidia I think, and lastly Staurogyne repens

This is what happens when you have a plant obsession

I might add some Vesicularia Montagnei eventually

if I know kuhlis, he is going to go directly under that flat black rock under the sand, period

but regardless the tank is beautiful

OH YOU'RE STARTING AN AQUARIUM TOO???

the tank cycled SO fast for me with live plants

it's beautiful

hope it cycles fast for you too

(literally mine cycled in 1 week)

(there's fish in mine now, no issues)

Yeah. It is an upgrade from my old one.

I am planning on giving the plants plenty of time to establish properly in case I get a fish that likes to redecorate

what size is the tank?

we have diamond tetras right now and i'm going to get cory cats next

also do you use CO2 injections? I can't decide if it's worth it to try out a DIY

The tank is 43l. I have not used CO2 in the past and I don't think I will for this tank. Maybe when we have a fish room and I have space to get into aquascaping properly

This tank is because I seriously want to have a betta again

BETTAAAAAAAAAAA

it's a beautiful nano-aquascape

Thank you
