"Der Ewige Kreis" - "The Eternal Circle" - To be Torn Down

yeah, I might do that with the Echinodorus Tenellus, the thing is, Rams and Apistos like to have an open area in the middle to swim (Thats what I heard).

they are bottom feeders so it makes sense.
i dont think a planting against the back wall about 3" forward would bother them.

what about driftwood, do you have it? i suggest you get a light brownish kind. i think it would fit in better then the dark kind (some are almost black).

I am getting manzanita from badcopnofishtank, and I guess I will plant a little in the back then, it will be a little as I go, but mostly according to plan.

update:

I have recieved equipment from a felllow APC member. I have recieved a Whisper 40 HOB filter, 2 Hagen Co2 fermentation kits, and peat pellets.

The equipment I need will be ordered shortly. Instead of buying flourite, and paying for expensive shipping, I will buy AS probably from AFA in SF. I believe 1 9 liter bag is enough for about 2.5 inches of substrate, correct me if I am wrong

I read through this thread and have to ask. Just what classifies this as a journal?

**fishman9809** · 04-19-2008, 07:42 PM

the fact that it is basically a diary of a tank. it also contains criticism and help from other members.

It is? I must have missed something. It resembles all of your "I am getting this tank soon, what should I do..." threads.

I am not bashing you at all. I just expected more. Pictures of the actual tank would be nice. Besides the pics of the tank sitting on your porch.

**fishman9809** · 04-19-2008, 07:50 PM

naw, I know ur not bashing me, just wondering, but yes, I like to have good advice because u dont want to put the wrong things in ur tank and everything goes wrong. as I stated before, the tank wont really get started until my dad comes back from Switzerland in 9 days. The equipment is coming in, but the tank wont get planted or anything until he arrives home.

So, in other words it really isnt a journal. As it hasnt started yet. Thats what I thought.

**fishman9809** · 04-19-2008, 07:54 PM

sure

**lauraleellbp** · 04-20-2008, 04:32 AM

LOL fsh never read through my journal on TR (linked in my sig) I started it in January, and I think I was up to 10 or 12 pages before water ever saw the inside of my tank (since that only happened last weekend...)

I look forward to seeing more pics with yours too, Fish!

**fishman9809** · 04-20-2008, 04:37 AM

yea, hopefully I will get AS tomorrow, I am planning for tomorrow, but I cant do anything until my dad comes back from the land of the Swiss. I might DIY a stand with him or mod my current stand to hold more weight. II hope he comes back soon, because a APC member is offering me some lighting fixtures for a lowered price, since they are used as well!!!!

**fishman9809** · 04-21-2008, 03:05 AM
