The shelf is the $50 Home Depot 4 self unit. The top rack is detached and it happens to be perfect height for the 20L.

I moved to a bigger tub so as to avoid making so many DIY co2 generators.

I'm not so sure if I'll get equal growth seeing as I had to adjust the lights upward. Time will tell.

I absolutely love downoi and staurogyne repens. I have a bunch of downoi left over, do people seem to buy it on this site or is it a plant that doesn't ship well? Thanks for watching everyone!!

Thank you! That red plant is meant to be an easier red plant, plus the massive amount of red clay I have under the sand helps ?

I'm happy with it too! That growth is just with soil and gluteraldehyde dosing. I just set up my DIY co2 generator and can't wait to see the growth then. ?

What size tubs did you upgrade to? Im pretty impressed on how this turned out. Nice work!

Thank you. It's a 40 quart, I've noticed the tubs with grooves and heavier feeling plastic withstand the water weight better.

Just being boring, I'm currently working on the plans to set up 3, 40 quart storage tubs under a 4' dual t5ho so as to save space and electricity. Soon to come....

How's the plants I sent ya awhile back?

sit in silence...
 
They're doing great! There was no die off of any type. One or two plants are slower than the rest, I think it's from being on the outside of the lights circle. The AR "mini" makes me not want to grow standard AR though. It's awesome.

This is the biggest pond snail ever! ImageUploadedByAquarium Advice1448503359.515406.jpg

Its not, most likely the plastic from the tub. Only downside to the whole tub idea...
