Default a work in progress (5g nano)

initial set up.

substrate: ADA Aquasoil (Amazonia II)
decor: Malaysian Driftwood
fauna: 2 types of anubias, (nana, and the skinny leaf one), java fern, amazon swords
equipment: Nutrafin Co2 System w/ bubble ladder



this was a few hours after i first set it up. the soil was still settling so its pretty cloudy.

today i up graded the light to 40w (from the original 15w)and added a few more plants.
got some ground cover started, and i tied all the java ferns to the DW. also added some java moss to the front of the DW.



hopefully it will grow in nicely.
i guess we will see.

Yes,probably.Since your light set is strong enough for java moss to thrive.How long do you on your light set a day?

8-10hrs.
all the plants are fine. the moss requires the least amount of light out of everything in that tank.
