This aquarium is inspired by Jurassic World. Hardscape made of Red Moorwood and Fossilized Wood on which various ferns grow - a good combination to evoke that period. The fish I am planning to introduce are Parambassis sp. / Gymnochanda sp. and something more bizarre looking (the weirder the better :)) depending on what will be available. Some of the plants are still not planted such as Bucephalandra and some ferns as I am waiting for the aquarium to stabilize a bit, even though the filter has been in operation since the last setup.

I haven't updated this aquarium for a long time, better late than never. :) A lot of things happened in the meantime - after 4 months from the start I decided to stop adding CO2. I think it was a good decision in terms of maintenance even though I had to remove some of the stem plants. Not so much because of the CO2, but because I also raised the lighting console by about 10 cm so that I could grow plants above the water surface.
This has been a low-energy aquarium for over a year now.
