Truthfully, I was a bit disappointed to know I ranked out of top 1k of IAPLC 2013, but after i saw the IAPLC video of the top rankers... well...how the hell should i be ranked in top 1k....lol. This is my first Iwagumi...I am lucky enough to call this successful?
So how does my tank looks like? beauty is in the eyes of the beholder... so i hope you guys like it too
This is my best masterpiece so far... in case you are wondering..its a iwagumi scape with a pond in the middle.....
Flora
Riccia ( i do not know where the hell they came from...)
HC
Mini Fissidens
Misc Algae ( on the rocks, yes those are algaes, who say algae is your enemy? nice?)
Flame Moss
Thai Java Moss
Weeping Moss
Fauna
Neon tetras
Cherry shrimps
Otos ( hidden from view of course)
Lights
4 x 24watt T5HO
subsequently EVO LED lights
CO2
1-2bps ( drop checker green)
Fertilizer regime
weekly double dosage of Seachem Flourish and sometimes Lushgro ( my lushgro is nearly finish)
Weekly dosage of seachem excel
Maintenance
Simple trimming of HC and Moss,clearing of gsa, waiting for algae ( green BBA) to grow is torturing but the effect is very good ( at least for me)
Special thanks to:-
Uncle Mazlan, Apek Felix, Qingwen Didi, for their valued opinions to make this scape successful
Not forgetting my Beau...tiful wife.. who is currently pregnant, the one who disturbs/nags/ complained /shout /throw things at me whenever i dip my hands into the tank/goes to LFS/ updating this blog..
