Ok so I got the tank in on Tuesday ordered it Sunday night, for free shipping wow that was fast. I love the tank very sleek and silicone in very clean pricing was a bonus.
It was packed very well I probably could've thrown the box at the ground and it wouldn't break haha. I was too excited to take any pics of how it was packed except one whoops.
I'll be documenting the tank progress here from my iPhone5s (excuse the bad camera phone pics haha) and hopefully I can keep some of you interested haha.
This is going to be a planted shrimp tank going with blue pearls since there cheap and this is only my second shrimp tank so I don't want to go too crazy I already have one berried.
This will be low-med tech
Plants I'm interested in:
Hygro corymbosa kompakt.
Staurogyne repens
Star grass
Anubias nana petite
Water sprite
Java and Christmas moss
Crypt wendtii
Narrow leaf java fern
Probably more that's off the top
Lighting: 12" finnex planted plus
Will be moving onto dry ferts and metricide 14 (I know shrimp are sensitive)
Filtration: no name sponge filter and maybe an aqua clear with a sponge intake if I don't like the sponge filter.
Substrate: dirted with flora max cap.
I think that's it for right now and a big thanks to Brian_Nano12g for recommending the tank and inspiring me to make a build thread! Haha will upload pics shortly.
