Hello Everyone!
This is my first time posting on here, I got into the aquarium hobby around February 2019 and this will be my first time aquascaping a tank. However, I do have a "Dutch" style tank that its currently set up purely to learn how to keep and maintain aquatic plants. I learned a lot from my "Dutch" tank and now I want to get into aquascaping. I know this is a relatively difficult tank due to the dimension and how shallow it is. I've done extensive research on equipments and I think I'm ready to set it up. The tank won't be planted until February since I will be traveling until mid-January. I wanted to do the hardscape first and take a few pics and see which one I like the best (I also couldn't help myself and wanted to mess with the tank right away
). Any suggestions on what I should change is much appreciated!
Tank: Uns 60s (23.6" x 14.17" x 7.08")
Light: Chihiros WRGB (haven't purchased yet) I wanted to go with this light because it's dimmable and for a shallow tank, I think it's much needed
Co2: 5lbs tank with a ceramic diffuser
Filter: Fluval 206
Plants Idea:
Foreground
Glossostigma
Hydrocotyle Tripartita
Midground
Rotala Bonsai
Blyxa Japonica
Hygrophila Corymbosa Compact (maybe, still deciding)
Crypt Wendtii Green (maybe, still deciding)
Bolbitis Difformis 'Mini' (maybe, still deciding)
Anubias Petite
Buce Centipede (maybe, still deciding)
Buce Mini Coin
Buce Brownie Ghost
Buce Wavy Green
Buce Belindae (maybe, still deciding)
Background
Rotala Sunset
Pogostemon Erectus (maybe, still deciding)
Myriophyllum Guyana (maybe, still deciding)
If you have any plants that you think would look good for this scape, let me know! Looking forward to your feedback!
