i know theres a spec thread, but so many people are buying the spec v. not alot of info out there on lighting upgrades, filter upgrades either so id like to start one. if you care to play please post a picture of your spec v and info on your tank.
Thanks! I think they're Seiryu stone or Ryuoh stone, I'm not able to tell the difference. Why do you say if not then consider...?
I was thinking about putting some Red Shrimp in after a few weeks, tank is mid-cycle at the moment, ammonia is gone within 24hr, waiting for nitrite eating bacteria.
co2 and lights are coming next week (it can't get here quick enough! I want my HC to survive!)
Only problem I am having is the bunches don't feel so securely rooted in yet, but they are growing, so might wait until there is a full carpet and staple them down before adding shrimp as I don't wan't the little buggers floating up after I put shrimp in.
Stupid question, are the Fluval Spec series aquariums acrylic or glass? I've seen conflicting comments regarding this, and seller websites say "etched glass" but I'm not sure if they mean the tank or the portion covering the overflow.
I'm starting a nano soon and if these are glass I''ll probably go with the Spec V instead of a Mr. Aqua tank.

I just purchased a Fluval Spec V and order plants for it. I might have over ordered on plants but I figured I would post on here and see what you guys think.
2x pots of Pigmy Chain Sword, Echinodorus tenellus
1x ECHINODORUS PARVIFLORUS 'TROPICA' Small Sword
1x Cryptocoryne undulata
1x Riccia Fluitans (2x3" piece) Not sure if im going to put it on the driftwood i picked up or maybe let it float.
Here is my spec V, set up 2 months ago, containing anubias, java fern, amazon sword, moss balls, rotala, sagittaria with 4 neon tetra, 2 otos, RCS and CRS.
