    I had this tank sitting at my work, have not used it in years so decided to bring it home and try a nano planted tank.
    I am going to start off with easier plants and see what happens...

    Current setup:
    46x23x23 cm
    Black substrate
    200l internal filter

    Waiting for delivery of:
    50w heater
    10w LED light [​IMG]

    Super excited
    My new LED light got delivered. Bought on Takealot.
    I added four cherry shrimp to the tank. Also a small amount of Riccia to see if it grows before I decide on other plants.
    Now to decide on final scape...[​IMG][​IMG]

    I added some Dragon rock to the scape.

    Any thoughts?[​IMG]

    Nothing major plant wise. I have added a piece of Valis. Stuck some riccia onto the wood and trying out some UM (I think) from my other tank on the other piece of wood near the top.
    I have a small string of java moss that has started to attach itself to the wood as well.
    So exited as I spotted some baby shrimp, hoping they the cherry shrimp.[​IMG]
