That is a goooorgeous tank. Congrats mate, I’m not the best aquascaper by far, I can never keep the simplicity and funkshway that I admire in tanks like this.

This tank has flow, I love the hardscape. I think some moss on the rocks would take it to the next level!

Thanks for the input y’all. Would love to get moss growing on those rocks. Quick update. Added a couple more rock pieces in the back and mounted the Java ferns to that

Looks great!! Make sure the anubias rhizome is not planted in the substrate otherwise they will die.

Beautiful! I have the same tank with a similar wood piece but on the right side. I sloped the gravel down and have so many random plants but I love my dwarf and regular subulata. I have gouramis, corys, kuhlis, an African butterfly fish and some tetras. I love the look of your tank too. Some are just too crowded.

absolutely. I use braided fishing like anchored to fishing weights so that the plant essentially floats right on top of the substrate vs being buried within it. So far a couple new leaves have popped up, but we’ll see if I have any issues long term

Very nice tank....really like the aquascape. I am just getting back into aquariums after a couple year hiatus. I had a 120 gal, 90 gal and 75 gal with a bunch of big fish....got really tired of the massive water changes. Picked up a 32 gal Fluval Flex am decided to give planted tanks a try. Much more relaxing, much less water to change.

Plants seems to be growing and reproducing at a decent clip. I’m doing medium lighting for 7 hours a day, broken up into two blocks of time with a few hour break in-between. Had some slight hair algae in the beginning but that has been gone for a bit now. I’ve cleaned off the fungus from the driftwood twice now and it keeps coming back. Does anyone find that oto’s will actually eat this stuff?

Panda garras or a clown pleco should help.

Update: have been struggling with cloudy water for the last 1.5 weeks. I grabbed some activated carbon to see if it could clear it up for me. Upon opening up the filter to add the carbon I noticed just how bad my filter already needed to be cleaned. After a good cleaning in tank water and new carbon, we’re back to clear! Before and after photos attached

Been a few years since I’ve had aquariums. Pretty excited to get back into it. Here’s a quick look- I welcome any feedback

Great looking tank like the aquascape so far! On thing I would say (although maybe others dissagree) But I like to have my inlet and outlet on opposite sides of the tank to ensure good flow/distribution of nutrients. I guess this tank is more tall than long so maybe less of an issue.
