Stocking advice for a planted 92 corner tank
- Thread starter Bunsen Honeydew
- Start date
It's a Beamworks 36" LED fixture. The post its are just the kids decorating. They love the things, and I get them free.
Cycling is well underway after the addition of Tetra SafeStart. Ammonia was undetectable, but still had some nitrite. Added more ammonia. Pretty good progress for 2 days of cycling.
I have my sump tank now, I just have to get it plumbed and in place. Hoping to get the driftwood added and start planting soon.

I have the wood in now, but stirred up the sand quite a bit getting it in there. Hopefully it will be settled enough to plant this weekend and stir up again. The wood ended up differently than I wanted, but I like it anyway.
I like the wood, from what I can see...except for those 2 exactly matching parallel up-pointing pieces on the right. Is that what you were referring to? Sometimes there's nothing you can do & with plants it may not be so noticeable.
Both of those were mistakes. The big central piece was supposed to be on the ground too, but I missed with the rear anchor and it floated. Rearranging and a water change made it better.
It looks better in person too. I need to get another light to take pictures. I don't think this will a great aquascape any time, but it should end up looking reasonably natural. Planting this weekend.
Also, the arching triangle piece that was in the foreground had a hooked end to it, that was used to anchor it. I used that piece to hook under a horizontal piece on the right, and it is hanging around like a balloon. It wobbles and moves in the current.
I may do something else with those rocks on the l right now too.
