I forgot to ask, what are some thoughts on a tall background plant? I'm getting sick of seeing my wall/ filter piping. I use to have a wall of ludwigia repens in each tank. Pretty but what a pain in the BEHIND. It would grow past the spray bar and reduce flow, plus the leaves that fell off would be all over the tank! I think something Like a val would be great but I'd really like to get some suggestions! Thanks a bunch!
29 low tech X2
Hi, Its been a long while since I last posted a tank. My last tank was a 55gal high tech. My Gf and I moved to an apartment and couldn't take the 55 with us :icon_frow. The landlord said I could have two 25 gallons so I bought two 29's :tongue:. He'll never notice the difference.
They have been set up for almost a year now with no Issues what so ever!! Both tanks have identical equipment setups and plants.
Thanks:
29g
Aquatop CF-400UV
Catalina 30" dual T5HO
Eco complete
No ferts/excel
Weekly 20% WC
Flora:
Java Fern
Jave lace
Hemianthus callitrichoides not spreading like I'd hoped, don't really mind.
Assorted crypts
Vals
Fauna:
Both tanks have Red cherry rasboras/neon tetras along with a few cory's and Amano shrimp...
One has 2 rainbowfish
The other has 2 bolivian rams.
Both also house nerite snails.
Considering I use dual T5HO fixtures I have zero algae problems and the tanks stay very clean using the Aquatop filters. They are an awesome filter for the price.
I just set up a 7.5 cube shrimp tank that I will be posting in the Nano section soon!
Thanks for checking the tanks out! Let me know what you gays/gals think! I'm always up for a re-scape/new plants that I can grow without co2/ferts!
