Default "Bo-Bak" 330 liters

About 3 months ago I started a new tank together with my colleague. It's placed in the store were we work.
We build everything together on our own. The stand, aqua, hood etc etc
We work in a rental company that is called Bo-rent. That's why it's called Bo-bak. Bak means Tank in dutch

Tank: 120x55x50
DIY co2 2 x 1 liter.
Eheim 2217 1000l/h
Daily add's; KNO3, Kh2po4, flourish excel and Profito ( sort of ada step 3)
Lights: 4 x 54W T5. 1 x 3000K, 2 x 4000K, 1 x 6500K

Here's a picture I made yesterday.

Beautiful aquascape! That's amazing that you built it all yourselves. So, I guess customers come in and stare at it for hours...

I think if you change the 2 x 4000K to 2 X 1000k, then it will be look a lot better.

I know, but I thought that he wanted to say that the growth maybe would be better with other bulbs.

Hey, this is a very beautiful tank.
Judging by your Tank of the yr tank (the moss ball) and this one... I think you must really enjoy trimming This tank will be very nice when its all full. Good job!
