Nicely packed in the zip nets...


Insides the filter box, the bottom of the 2nd and 3rd compartment placed with a layer of bioballs. This is to make sure the water runs smoothly and will not be clogged when debris and dirt accumulate through time


2nd compartment placed with 10kgs Taiwan made bacteria rings. 3rd compartments with 10kgs biohome & biohome +


Last compartment with 20L PH rock

1st compartment place fully with Jap mat. 2nd and 3rd compartments both covers with 2 layers of jap mat on top


Water running smoothly as planned. Throw in some Mint plants for absorbing nitrate and nice mint fragrance. Place some BH at the 1st compartment using the water splashing effect..


Same thing apply exactly at the 2nd filter box, except direction is opposite


Throw in more Pandan Leaves plants into the 2 filter boxes. Nice natural deco and fragrance

That's all from now. It is 90% done, still waiting for the custom made aluminum cover net and lightnings coming. Will expect to cycle the water for at least 2 to 3 weeks with just few testing fishes..
