Pinchboyz,
does it improve the growth of ya plants by going for 4hrs then off 2hrs and continue again by 5hrs? wat is the philosophy behind this?
AHahhaa. got my degree in green water, BBA and Master for hair algae

Catacomb,
wat kind of substrate you use, garden soil?
yeah, nano is very challenging.. not just scaping, controlling the water parameter as well.. sekali change water.. you might send ya fishes straight to the grave..
i think Java Moss might still survive in 28c.. but definately will stun the growth..
hahhaa. your tank is so tiny, by adding the thermometer, then ya filter.. scape with 1 rock.. your fish got no room left. lolx..

hi there, i think the wood might be a lil too big, maybe use 1 only instead of 2? again, try arranging in different manner, post some pics

wood usually will increase de pH by a lil.. boil them in a pot, change water and boil again... to reduce the tanning... if you use ADA soil.. supposedly will help lower the pH..
1) to control the algae growth, especially hair algae.
2) DW not decrease pH mer? increase a?

erm... i also not sure.... using gravel lor... i thought of adding beach sand at the bottom for the plant to grow.... is it possible??.. will it affect the water pH as it is from seawater sand??...
if everything works well, i wont be changing water that often lor.... top up everyday and change mayb halftank water once in a while... mostly will depend on water filter to keep the water clean...
yeah, i do notice the lack of space limitation... datz why i jz planning for minature seabed grass lookalike plants... a rock mayb 5cm length will do... hahaha.....
but if possible i still prefer driftwood... any driftwood available which can grow abit of moss on top and yet doesnt affect water pH??...

1) sand can be used, but make sure check the pH level first...some of the sand will increase pH
2) still, adviceable to WC once a week, so lil volume, wont be head ache
3) make sure if u use sand as substrate, add some base fert if for stem plant. for moss, liquid type should be enough
4) you still can find nice lil dw in lfs, go hunt around...
