Hey toribio, great job with that nano,please tell us some more abut it, lights substrate & how you maintain it.
Thanks for sharing with us, glad you enjoyed your stay in Ottawa.

toribio

Thanks Charlie

the 4 liters has as mixture of substrate azoo grower bed "black" and seachem fluorite, it has a 15watts bulb of 6500°k and it on 10 hour a day, i make water change every week,

after every water change i add azoo hormones (3pack/ zeatine,glibbereline and auxin),fluorish exel,fluorish iron,and azoo trace elements.At the next day i add potassium nitrate.

in the 10 litters, is only azoo grower bed, round t5 bulb of 22 watts and 6500°k, homemmade co2, with a dymax co2 diffuser, and it keep tunerd on 11 hours a day. the water change and the adition of hormones and that, is the same that in 4 liters.


in few days i´ll post my other nanos,i´ll wait for your criticism and comments

thanks! and sorry for my english i hope you can understand what i wanted to say jejej

Nice tanks, looks like everything is just growing fine. Thanks for sharing them with us!

What are the hormones you are adding there, which purpose do they serve?
be aware of the green side

Zigot

Very nice nanos!!

What is the cover plant and the 2 bushes on the left and right of the first tank?
Do you get any algae at all?

toribio

Hi !

fischkopp :  the hormones makes the plants grow better,more quickly and more healthy, if you use the 3 pack hormones  you win better grow in with, in height and in fast growth of roots.

Zigot : the cover plant used in both tanks is hemianthus callitrichoides "cuba", my favorite cover plant, the other plants in the 4 liters are, in the right blixa japonica, and at the left pogostemon helferi,

Here as the tank is so little i have to prune the plants very often to maintain that size.

thanks for your comments!
