After i drained out my big tank, i decided to set up a nano tank for summer. It's been about three
weeks after set up. Everything looks fine except slightly diatoms. I do daily water changes (%50)and
fertilizing. I hope you like.
Wow what a lovely little tank! What sort of lighting and filtration do you use, and what is your fert and CO2 dosing regime? What fauna are you planning on adding?
I use a waterfall filter (600lh) and a 12w philips 6500k energy saver bulb connected to a desk lamp.
As i mentioned above i do large amount of water changes everyday (about 50%). So i do not need
to test levels and this situation allows me to fertilize safely. I add 0,4-0,5ppm phosphate, 10ppm
nitrate, 15ppm potassium and micro&trace elements which i possibly may increase in further phases.
I don't add extra iron for now, because micro element fertilizer contains enough amount of iron.
Fauna is a question mark.I haven't decided yet. I may add a small school of neon tetras but i'm not
sure.
I will add some new shots soon.
Regards.

I've increased the illumination to 23watts and started to add extra iron.
I have some difficulties with eleocharis, they grow really slowly. I had been
thinking that they are settling into the gravel until several weeks ago,
but i don't think so 'cos it's been nearly two months.. I think to plant
hemianthus micra into the background among them.
Thank you..
