180 L Planted Aquarium Journal

Through building and maintaining beautiful nature aquaria people re-learn the intricate connections between forms of life, plants, fish, microorganism and humans. Riches and beauty come from harmony, from balance. Aquaria are great teachers of this truth. Takashi Amano

The 10th day

In just two days the Thalictroides ( Water Sprite ), on the right tank side, grew up so much you can tell by compering with the 8th day photo. It is an incredible plant !!! It is a perfect starter plant. My Polysperma is growing fast enough but not as fast as Thalictroides. Thanks to this plant I will be able to start adding algae eating fish next week. The plant is an excellent nutrition absorber, which means no ammonia.
I put the light reflectors so you can notice the difference in photos. With reflectors the lights perform 100%.
