Hi everyone

This is the newest layout in my small tank.

54L 60x30x30cm tank
Eheim 2211 filter
3x24Watt T5s @ 8 hours per day
ADA Aqausoil amazonia
Mini landscape rocks

Plants and fish.
HC, Hemianthus callitrichoides ''Cuba''
Lampeye killifish

50% Water changes every 3-4 days and I dosed 2ml Tropica plant nutrition+ daily.
CO2 1bps

I grew this out without a heater in the tank and then added the fish later.

Thanks for looking

Really like the layout, that's a lot of water changes for this tank, do you think this is excessive?

I like your rock work, it's like walking in a mystery valley of...
Beautiful aquascape!

For the fish choice of color, I think it would look better
if you add cardinal/neon tetra or harquelin instead.
But it's just a though

how much gallon is that tank?

Great hardscape! On of the best "mountain" scapes I've ever seen. How long is the tank running?
