Nice Tank..
White sand with plants ..really difficult to maintain. Wonder how you maintain it. My tank based with europet White sand and woods already hard time to siphon out the "dirt"and sand to wash and put back. In the end took the woods out for easy maintenance.

Are your plants rooted in to the sand or tied to objects?

I also prefer your old scape . But most important is family members happy.

Nice one bro... I also cleared both my tanks over Easter to do up new scapes. Up till now both tanks still empty with nothing but fish and sand. Just ordered some plants to do up over vesak day long weekend! I am very bad with plants though, probably will end up quite bad hahaha

Thanks bros!
Maintenance just usual weekly light vacuum and water change. All plants either on driftwood, rock or left in the plastic baskets (wool removed). Easily convertible to other scape
Light liquid fert dose twice a week and keep light low (1-1.5 watt per gallon max). Dose seachem excel for carbon instead of using co2.

2 more question...ph level and water change once a week and how much to change???

[elimmel]

pH around 6.8-7 and weekly 30-40% water change.
Liquid fert and seachem excel dosing twice a week. No co2 cos only having low light plants
