ADA 30cm system - Planted

[zchauvin]

Just wanted to share another project of mine. This is an Aqua Design Amano ( ADA) 30cm system. The tank itself is 3.5 gallons and has LED lighting, complete ADA filtration and pressurized co2. The tank has only been planted for a few days.

Off to a great start Zach.
The plants are bursting with colours and contrast , I love their look .I hope you'll manage to keep them in such a great shape.

But you are lacking a bit of hardscape here buddy, a couple of interesting stones or drift woods would make this tank complete ADA design.

Thank you. I purposely left out any hardscape as I wanted is to be a simple project, I have hornwood and unzan stone as well as other materials. This was actually a aquascape style I first saw on ADA view that I liked.

Very cool!

Very cool!

Thanks! If it is of interest to you check back periodically as I will try to do updates every so often. Already seeing good growth over the weekend but not worth trying to upload pictures. Constant issues lol. Will make the one week mark this Friday so I'll be adding some otocinclus and Amano shrimp. At the rate of growth I am seeing, I should have a full carpet within the month.

Also, it is currently next to my computer on desk but the glass stand arrives tomorrow so I should everything set up. I will try to upload if the site allows.

Very nice Zach. Have you considered moving the diffuser behind the plants? How are you liking that dual return pipe?
