Default #projectebiADA

Hey all, just sharing a new setup that I have just completed. A lot of 'obstacles' along the way that made me delay completing this project. A very simple setup that I've always wanted, to display my own lineage of PRL. However, the shrimps will come in only much later!

A big thank you to bro Joop for the ADA 60P without which I won't be motivated to start, Aquarist Chamber for the beautiful 'Iguazu '09', GreenChapter for having their pre-christmas sales and FishyBusiness for the well-made cabinet!

Here are the specs:
Tank: ADA 60P
Cabinet: Custom (Fishybusiness)
Lights: Aquazonic 2ft double tube T5
Filter: EHEIM 2213 + EHEIM subfilter 250
Chiller: Hailea HC150A (New silent model)
Pipes: Gush oPipe 13, gPipe 13, Gush Stainless steel Filter Guard 13 and ADA Clear hose 13mm
Substrate: ADA Amazonia + Amazonia Powder
Flora: Mini fissidens on driftwood, Blyxa Japonica, Eriocaulon sp. 'Japan' and Echinodorus sp. 'Iguazu '09'

Nice set up bro, the middle plant is nice too. May I know the steel cover for the pump water pipe, is it use to replace sponge and prevent clot?

Thanks,

Thanks,
The filter inlet mesh is mainly to prevent shrimplets from getting sucked into the filter.
