how do you keep the plants so green ?

[Electromusicaus]

Very nice natural looking low tech tank!

[0a0d0s0]

Thanks MrBorderghost, will hopefully have an update soon. : )

[PetaPanPipes]

@0a0d0s0 An update would be fantastic! Standard lights. Looks great. What kind of filter are you using. I have the 620t but it's empty.

[0a0d0s0]

@PetaPanPipes All standard stuff. Lights standard. Filter standard. Hopefully I can do an update soon! Very busy with other projects at the moment!

[MrBorderghost]

Thats a tank to be proud of the best set ups are the ones that look most natural......

[Bazil1869]

can you do an update plzz

[ShanehShane]

Nice looking tank. I'm currently planning on revamping my Aqua One 620. Thinking of using an external filter with overtank luminaires as well. As well as getting a divider and having a planted section as well as sand. We'll see.

[0a0d0s0]

@ShanehShane Sounds like a plan. I tried sand a couple of years ago, but didn't divide it well enough - the tank looked like a snow globe! Would be good to see how it goes. :D

[Bazil1869]

hi and also what was that fish at the start next to the bolivian ram?does he grow big?

[0a0d0s0]

@Bazil1869 He's a Clown Pleco. 4 years old and only around 11cm. They don't grow too big, 12cm max I think.

[Bazil1869]

@0a0d0s0 thanksi just got one today ^^

[0a0d0s0]

@Bazil1869 How's your Clown Pleco doing? Pretty cool aren't they, but can get a bit grumpy at feeding time.

[Bazil1869]

@0a0d0s0 hes doing good loves the 3d foam background thingy and at feeding time he just usually sits on the log and watches all the other fish.i will put another video up soon =)

[Bazil1869]

hi there i just recently bought the 620 and want to plant it any tips?

[0a0d0s0]

@Bazil1869 Long arms help! Any tips, well I'd make sure the plants aren't too dependent on light, it's a deep tank and the lighting isn't great. I got my plants from The Green Machine, so if you're in the UK I'd recommend them.

Good luck. :D

Awesome tank!!! Check out my first tropical fish tank it's a ar980 it's nowhere near as good as this one though

[0a0d0s0]

@LIVE4SCOOTERS Cheers. Yours is cool too, patience!

Hi I was just wondering how much eco complete you used in the bottom of your tank? :)

[0a0d0s0]

@agentdefault x3 9kg bags. I used it all. : )

[agentdefault]

@0a0d0s0 That helps me a lot. I just bought the same tank a few days ago and was trying to figure out how much substrate I would need :D

[0a0d0s0]

@agentdefault Great, have fun! I wouldn't bother with the free BioMagnet sachets though - weird stuff and it clogged up my filter.

[agentdefault]

@0a0d0s0 Haha okay thanks for the heads up :)

[0a0d0s0]

@agentdefault How's your tank doing?

[agentdefault]

@0a0d0s0 Yeah it's going really good actually. I stole some ideas from your tank and have Hygrophilia polysperma rosanervig and Hygrophilia difformis growing. They grow absolutely crazy even with the low light. And for fish I just have some minnows, platies and peppermint bristlenoses for now. I will have to get a video up when I get time. How's your tank doing?

[0a0d0s0]

@agentdefault Good to hear. :D Peppermint bristlenoses are ace, I wouldn't mind giving them a try one day. In a word my tank is bushy. It needs a good pruning, and I need to ship some snails out. Would be good to see your peppermints when you get a chance.

[DUHKK]

Where did you get your beautiful rams?! :)

[0a0d0s0]

@DUHKK Venezuela!

[VincenzoIanni1982]

Your aqurium is very nice. Compliments. You can see my aquarium in "Acquario pesci tropicali - VINCENZO IANNI". Ciao. Vincenzo.

[0a0d0s0]

@VincenzoIanni1982 thanks! I had a look at your underwater world - very enchanting! And I think I spotted Romulus and Remus in there too! :)
