IWAGUMI 6.5

[Gourami Swami]

Hello MFK,
Wanted to share my newest project, and my first attempt at an "iwagumi" aquascape. I have always admired these ADA-style planted tanks, but had never had the right equipment to attempt it. So here's my first shot. Just filled it with water yesterday, did a dry-start for about one month. Planning on only keeping shrimp and plants in this tank, have yet to get any shrimps.

Specs:
Tank: Aquatop 6.5g long high clarity glass (24"x6.75"x9.5")
Light: Chihiros A-series LED
Filter: Dennerle Eckfilter Nano with Babyprotect attachment
Substrate: Fluval Stratum
CO2: Fluval 20g Pressurized system. Rhinox drop checker
Plants: Monte Carlo and pygmy swords
Rocks: "dragon stone"

Yeah, they arent super expensive and are supposed to yield good results, just not sure how long the lights themselves actually last compared to other LED setups these days...
