nice setup michanz!!    the 2nd pic is tat a 2ft tank? warh!! u rich sial go put ADA soil ar? how much u pay ar? the lights u're using is normal table lamp or fishy lamp?

ColdFusionPower ur plants might not survive la if u dont have co2, lights, and fertilizer...
and i think the sand is a lil too shallow for the plants to grow roots

michanz setup so nice ...

haha .. yeah .. after this i gonna go shopping for stuff ..

the GEX soil or even ADA Aquasoil is available in Irene in Seapark  and 88 in Sunwaymas.

You can get the basic 2ft aluminium casing for about rm90. But the stock flourescent casing that comes with most casings aren't suitable for planted tanks. So, you'll have to spend a little extra on getting the proper lights.

You might wanna consider getting a fan to keep your temperature down and timer for your lights.

no lah. Just learn as I go along. And I still have a lot more to learn

I think that's part of the fun.
Oh ya, one more thing. If you're considering adding fish, don't buy them till after your tank have cycled, or if you have a matured filter.

Having a filter to circulate water helps plant growth, IMHO.

about 65 ? really ? i hv to check the price again .

thanks for the info !

this weekend, going to buy a 2ft glass tank and stand . YAY

michanz: u mean the DIY yeast CO2 ? if DIY, do u still need a buble counter or co2 difuser ?

use co2 reactor ?

Just found really really good light casing for you people, but then bloody expensive. Its the type people use for marine lights (you know on boats and such), guaranteed no water leaking in coz there's even an o-ring attached to the cover plus I've seen our crew hose the thing with power jet thingy and they still work hehehe... But got problem, you can only get it Marine supplies shop. Hmmm... wait there's a light shop at the end of Sunway Mentari Business Centre above Domino's Pizza, I think they stock it.

oo . hmm .   like that i also go diy co2 je lah .. much much x 10 cheaper . hahaha ..  so what i need, the ingredients ( sugar,yeast,water bottle,etc) , tube , and diffusor . orait . thanks !

p/s: .. anyone want a 2ft glass tank ? got one extra tank..not free . haha .. hv to buy lor ..

Errr.. Michanz you might want to use a cable tie around the end of your tubing, just a precaution, in case you aren't around and it pops out... LOLx. Unless you actually used the sealant on the connection, then no need. But if I were you, I'd use silicon gel on the connector then shove the tubing in followed by cable tie on the outside of the tubing. Just being safe ma.... Silicon gel acts as a lube when you want to remove the tubing... you know like when you and your .... oooopppssss sorry went off topic a bit, but you get my meaning, right!

haha . i bought one, then suddenly a fren give me one for free. haih . he doesnt say earlier. if not didnt buy lor . now i got one 2ft plastic tank and two of 2ft glass tank . haih ...
hmm . so what u do ? just open it to 3/4 ? then the pressure in the bottle is higher right ? huhu .. aslong the co2 keep going out. or .. BOOM ! got yeast all over the room . haha .. thanks for ur advice. will looking for the besi one .

ok ok...tai kor is back. Anything I can help?
