Hello everyone
Currently the tank is disabled, at least 4 months, and I ride it now that Sunday and I respect the opinions of the new setup and the layout proposed.
Name: Eye of water
Date of dubbing: 05 / 10 / 2009
Type: Natural planted aquarium
Measures the aquarium: 180cmx50cmx60cm = 540 liters (142.62 gallons) Approximate
Filtering: Canister Azoo 1500L/h + Atmam UV Filter 5W
Lighting: Lamps T5 Osram Skywhit Lumilux (6 X T5 54W 8.000K) + T5 Phillips (2 X T5 28W 5.000K) = 380W
Conditioning: Seachem Acid Buffer + Azoo Easy Starter + Stress Zyme + Elos Aqua Uno
Substrate: Elos Terra Médio e Small - Elos Bottom Mineral - Elos Terra Zero - Elos Aqua Uno
Front: 180cmx10cm composed of sand filter for swimming pool with water output simulating a source (Eye D water)
Bottom e Intermediate layer = 15 liters of Elos Botton Mineral + 3 boxes of Elos Terra Zero + 1 box of Elos Aqua Uno
Upper = 30 liters of Elos Terra Medio + 30 liters of Elos Terra Small (substrate used)
Liquid fertilization: Seachem Flourish + Seachem Nitrogen + Seachem Phosphorus + Seachem Potassium (For now I do not use)
CO2 System: Cylinder with regulator of 4kg + it bubbles ISTA + ISTA MAX MIX CO2 REACTOR
Material for Hardscap: 4 Driftwood of Aroeira, 40kg rajado pebble stones of large and medium-sized, 4kg stones of black and beige dolomite small (treated to become inert), 25kg of sand filter for swimming pool, a submerged pump Boyu 900L / h, a transparent hose, two connectors type "L", a plastic funnel, plastic suction cups and armbands.
Hardscap: Driftwood concentrated on the left side, medium and small stones located mainly in the center and right. The idea is to simulate the environment hardscap Sierra of Bodoquena in the state of Mato Grosso do Sul - Brazil, environment with a biotype of crystalline waters, with high aquatic flora and fauna and diverse, where the focal point of gold is the simulating a source of river, called the eye d´ water. This aquarium is inspired by the rivers of Bodoquena, as the rivers Sucuri, Prata and Baía Bonita, but it is not a biotype.
The name "Eye D water" refers to the expected effect of a submerged pump that will circulate the water and emerge from the bottom of the sand in front, simulating a source of river, called here D Eye of water, similar to natural rivers Sierra of Bodoquena. The flora and fauna are predominantly of native origin of the Sierra of Bodoquena (through research), however, plants such as Eichornia azurea, Ludwigia inclinata var. Pantanal and mosses were not classified as species belonging to the flora of the region, but not the aquarium is a biotype, it makes no great difference in spite of not using exotic, species of Brazilian flora.
Flora: 180cmx40 area of approximately
Frontal plane Carpet: Echinodorus tenellus + Eleocharis mínima + Hydrocotyle leucocephala
Median plane: Bacopa australis + Heteranthera zosterifolia + Hydrocotyle leucocephala + Najas guadalupensis
Plan fund: Echinodorus macrophyllus + Eichornia azurea + Ludwigia inclinata var. Pantanal
Driftwood with moss native of Brazil: probably not part of the flora of the Sierra of Bodoquena: probably not part of the flora of the Sierra of Bodoquena up here, with 5 species in the state of São Paulo - Sierra of Sea - Atlantic Forest.
Fauna:
Apistogramma Borelli = 3
Corydora Micro Hastatus = 10
Otocinclus affins / vittatus / Parotocinclus haroldoi = 10
Moenkausia santafilomenae / oligopepis = 2
Leporinus fasciatus = 2
Characidium fasciatum = 4
Hyphessobrycon eques / serpae = 20
Hyphessobrycon flammeus = 20
Wild Guppy (Poecilia reticulata sp. "Santo André") =
Shrimp Potimirim (Potimirim Gaba / Potimirim Potimirim) = 40
Gost Shrimp (Macrobrachium jelskii / sp.) = 20
Crab (Trichodactylus sp. "Mogi das Cruzes") = 2
Snail Ampulária (Curbícula sp) =
