Starting with my ongoing project...started in the end of April2011
First a small introduction about my hobby life. With me I also have 4ftr with salvini, jewel ,tiger loaches, common tiger fishes. From past 11years I am into these hobby but in planted part I am not that much familiar from past few months I am into it and doing research and reading as much as possible. I found Iwagumi one of the most interesting style of Aquascaping
For me with limited access of super efficient aquarium staff I have started my planted tank.
Flora: Rotala, HM, Crypt, H.Zosterifolia and also Heterofolia species, Anabius and Dwarf Sagittaria
Fauna: Serpae tetra, Neon rainbow, Mickey one unknown (most probably)native
Substrate: Vermicompost, laterite, Soilrite(a commercial substrate for potted plants consist of Vermiculite, perlite and peat moss) topped with light greenish inert substrate.
CO2: 1.2 and 2ltr bottles DIY
Lighting: 36 watt CFL and 23(spiral) watt CFL for 9hrs.
Hardscape: locally collected rocks.
Fertz: Dosing macros 5ml every week
Tank I have setup almost 1.5 months back but due to some fault I had made in the scapeand again had to rescape it and finished it last week. Plants has started showing some growth. Want to share my new Journey with you all..
Please need some serious comment sorry for the PIC quality as I have taken it with a 5mp camera phone
