Looks amazing! Tank and plants look really healthy. I love the layout, too.

Looks great! Seeing that dwarf hairgrass grow with no substrate nutrients is awesome.

I want some of them Hyperspots but can not justify the price especially since I have enough differnt types already.

This is pretty cool:





This could be a great series: photos at similar points in the tank's life cycle for comparison.

Thanks heaps for all the updates and photos. Tank looks amazing, as is all the equipment installed to run it. Very jealous!!
I've only ever tried dirted tanks and sand cap.
I was going to try an all aqua soil tank next but this has now given me inspiration to maybe try this first!

I also have a similar size tank with a full blyxa carpet (my favorite plant) but I think that might be the tank I'll experiment on. Its been running 18 months and is due for an over haul. So a BDBS or similar as the substrate sounds like a good plan.

Particularly with DIY ferts, you have full control from the water column.
