Michanz: Ur moss tank =

Just apply superglue technique at my scape yesterday. Buy a small portion of mini pellia at 88 yesterday for experimentation and stick it to my rock using superglue. So far no sign of dying on my mini pellia. The color still bright green. Maybe too soon...need to wait a couple of days before make conclusion. BTW, i just order a large portion of mini pellia that cost me RM70 for my dream mountain scape .

They have the untie one..the one at the top. My first patch is about the size of 50 cent. Rm 15. The RM 70 patch dunno what size coz not arrive yet

I also got fissidens too but at certain part of the rock, i see mini pellia is more suitable


Im using Selleys Supa Glue. It works fine for me and cheap too. 2 for RM 6

Guys, Why susah-susah find d skimmer la.... I just use this cheap HOB filter as my 100% skimmer. Cute, really small (barely unnoticed), and the most important is, it done the job well. What i do is, I block the bottom intake with sealant and use just the skimmer. You can buy it at 88 sunwaymas for RM 18

Yup..First its making noise but with proper tuning the water flow, the noise is completely gone

Bro post it again when u finish plant it

No. I use the technique for my previous layout n now all the mini pellia has been transfer to my latest layout

Bro go to Natural Aquatic ss19 subang for SAE. For yamato and cherry, go to Aquatics International

Nice scape bro like bonsai garden. If u have prob to find planted tank related product, I suggest u go to Aquashop or visit their Facebook page. Their price is really reasonable like example, they sell 5 bundles of Hydrocotyle just for RM8 if plus the shipping cost RM10, RM18 is still cheap

Added on May 15, 2010, 11:23 amNot nice la like that ... I dont think they simply raise the price. Maybe they have to pay for a sky hi shop rent...

Hmmm...Errr..What pet u talking about bro?

Aquarium pet wich one bro? CRS? RCS? Yamato? Galaxy? Neon tetra? Cardinal Tetra? bla..bla...bla...(too many to write here ) Or you mean how to start a planted tank?

Haha.. frm what i know, pet is a animal we kept for amusement. So,u must be specific if u ask for pet care coz dif pet dif care . But if u ask info bout starting a planted tank, here we go. This is base on my 1.7ft tank.

1- Aquarium = RM 85
2- Lighting sys Aquazonic 96W for 2ft = RM 270
3- Canister filter Eheim 2211 + Eheim Substrat pro= RM 300
4- HOB for surface skimmer = RM 18
5- ADA Power sand S = RM 92
6- ADA Bacter 100 = RM 5 for 2 spoon
7- ADA PanacW x4 spoon= RM 5 for 2 spoon
8- ADA Clear Super= RM 5 for 2 spoon
9- ADA PanacP x4 spoon = RM 5 for 2 spoon
10-ADA Tourmaline BC = RM 5 for 2 spoon
11-ADA Aqua soil Amazonia2 9 liters (powder type)= RM 140
12-ADA Bacter ball x1pcs ( put in canister filter)= RM 4

Ok that the basic setup (also my setup) for starting a planted tank. All the decoration like stone, drift wood and plant not yet in the list coz different ppl different taste of layout, so the price for the decoration is depends to what u want . And pls note that there will be a additional cost for the layout maintenance

Haha...ops..Ya RM 250 for co2 sys (2nd hand). Thanks for the remaider bro

Actually u can make more cheaper setup. For canister filter, its not necessary use Eiheim. U can use more cheaper china brand that cost u about RM 80 only as long as it is a bio filter. U also can skip all the substrate additives and use only power sand and aqua soil. The setup that i show to u is what my setup is. Maintenance for me is quite easy as long as u know what ur plants need. Owh i almost forgot....Welcome to the planted tank community

Hi bro. Welcome to the community
Its nothing to do with tank to create a beautiful layout. If u give a cheap plastic tank to Mr Amano or Oliver knott, they can turn it into amazing planted tank. But a good filter is a must for planted tank. Ok, this is how its work; Plants make photosynthesis and grow, the fauna breathe oxygen produced by the photosynthesis, Micro-organisms in the substrate and bio filter degrade the fish waste. If u can get this complete ecosystem in ur aquarium, u will be rewarded with a beautiful planted tank

Refer to my early post

This is my top of the list shop . 80% of my plant came from that shop. Dealing with them since last year, good price also, recommended seller . Next will buy some CRS from them too.
