I knew what this tank would look like just from the title.
You didn't disappoint.
And while you may have been trying to be funny with this one, its actually pretty good, in my opinion.
From what I've read of marimo balls, they are found clustered in abundance at the bottom of certain lakes. Lakes have rocks in them, too.
So having both marimo balls in clustered abundance and rocks, you have achieved the natural look so many of us strive for.
Now really impress me and make a good 'scape with Banana Plants.
It was fun not taking it too seriously and just throwing it out there.
Tippecone: Good idea on the DW, but no driftwood and Planet Tribble. Locus: Pretty simple setup - Small Aqueon HOB filter, UP Aqua 25cm LED light (pretty dim), little ferts/little excel, pool filter sand/petrified wood c10h12n20: Yes it's a heavy burden, many don't realize it, but I'm glad you did. Ugly: Appreciate that, I try to make it somewhat real, even though it's sort of a 'theme tank. Banana Plants, interesting, maybe I'll.....
Lovely and simple but I have always been under the impression that marimo need very little light, that going medium or high light tents to lend to other invasive algaes taking hold which are then a pain to get rid of as no chemical method of algae removal can be sued on marimo... run on sentence ^^''
More tribbles, not a bad idea, but where would it end? I would go from the 17g to a 100g there would be no stopping these tribbles. It would also be hard to explain to my wife that I spent all our holiday money on 3,536 tribbles.
Hey UG, I think I'll make some major headway this weekend thanks for asking. I've been just too crazed to focus on it. I really have to get it going since Planet Tribble is making my dizzy at this point.
Love it! glad you posted on my Marimo themed tank! how much excel and what ferts are you dosing? At this stage I havent added any ferts to my marimo tank but if a small amount helps I mite start.
