Interesting. But how do you keep your tank cool?

Without chiller, my tank runs between 31C to 32C. Since I use chiller, I set it at 24C. Keeping the tank cool is my biggest challenge.

Use fan, those aquarium fan, but it will drop 2 to 4 degree only. If not, switch your location to another room or place.I havent buy yet as i am still keeping my tank empty from water for now.

Now with the plastic sealer i put ontop, and i put them on 1st floor, the temperature inside the tank is way higher than room temperature, but my carpet grass still able to survive

Nice scape. I don't like to use fan because of evaporation, and as you said, it only drop I think max 2 degrees. Then have to top up often. Prefer a more passive solution like those peltier cooling system, but as far as I know, they are not available in Malaysia or not easy to setup.

Nice scape btw. What carpet is that? And how long since setup?

I''m looking for mini fissidens and mini pelia. Anyone have some to spare? I can buy..

IMHO, 31C is too hot. 29C is already at the top end.

Magic seeds? No one actually knows what plant it is. It's famous in the indonesian aquascaping scene though. The thing is this plant needs constant trimming as it grows upwards more than creeping on your soil like monte carlo or cuba. I have a botttle of these seeds coming in from china. Do update hows the growth here.

A close up of the leaf at about 12 days old from one of the indo guys.

Seems like the plant could only last 4-5 months. After that need to reset your scape.

Depending on your inhabitants. Raise your water temp until 32C for ten days. It will rid of the Ich. It worked for me.

guys, how do you trim your stem plant?

i cut in the middle of the plant, as it will grow back. but the thing is, it will grow another branch near the cut i made, making it look weird and not systematic laugh.gif
