NEW SETUP FOR 2.5 FT PLANTED TANK

I got my new 2.5 ft tank today. I had thought about upgrading my 2 ft tank to 2.5 ft and tadaa.. but I removed the rim on top of the tank as it's easy for me to put my lighting on it. I'll be using the substrate in my 2 ft tank. I noticed, the bottom layer of the substrate already turned into mud.. but its all about experimenting.. so I'll give it a try though...

JAVA MOSS & FISSIDEN IN THEIR HABITAT

This is how the Java moss & Fissiden grow on rocks in their natural habitat. So, to save time from having to tie them, just pick & place in your tank!  :)

FISSIDEN MOSS

Fissiden & Java moss growing on the rocks. I didn't take any of these back home. Never tried keeping Fissiden in my tank before, but I like the look of it. It was raining that morning and the Java ferns were growing abundantly at the same area too.
