Day 1.

After failing my last nano tank, I decided to stop being a cheapskate and get all the recommended equipment.

I went to C328 and spent almost $250 on a whole new setup.

• Dophin brand 40x26x30cm tank
• Gex Slim Filter L (my favourite purchase)
• Up Pro-Led-T-36 light
• Dymax digital thermometer
• Dymax cooling fan Vortex W-8
• ADA soil 9L
• API testing kit
• Seachem Flourish
• Seachem Excel
• Various plants: Hornwort, Anacharis, Anubias Nana, HC, Glosso

Luckily I had Duncan to help guide me through the 1.5 hours I spent there. Unfortunately since C328 is all the way across the country from where I live, I spent another bomb on the taxi fare back home.

 

This is what my tank looks like now.

pH 6.4 / Ammonia 2-4 / Nitrites 0 / Nitrates 10
