my fluval edge journal i bought a used fluval edge that had a cracked top, it sat in storage for close to a year before i had a hurst of boredom/inspiration and decided to scape it at 2am one night when i couldn’t sleep. i could only use the hardscape materials and plants i already had on hand. i snapped these photos an hour or so after setting it up: the next morning: i had it sitting on my nightstand for 5ish months before i got bored and decided to redo it. i wanted something super low maintenance and this tank was just more work than i wanted to deal with in terms of keeping it looking pristine. i ordered 3 pieces of malasyian driftwood (at random) online and the 3 pieces that came in fit perfectly in the tank so naturally, i did another late night scape test fitting the wood: scape and first full up: after a few days: i added some emersed plants, i bought it as creeping jenny but it looks more like pennywort now that its grown in. you can see the little amount i started with next to the wood piece on the left: a couple weeks later and the pennywort is starting to flourish: another couple weeks later, the riccia has attached itself to the wood and is growing like a moss now: the fish are growing, i put them in as tiny juvies initially: a month later and the pennywort has taken off. i am doing bare minimum ferts (easy green once every couple weeks): taken a couple days later: the original shrimp from the first scape are still in here: and finally, the current state of the tank: its very overgrown and looks more like a pond but i personally love it. it feels like a little slice of nature right on my nightstand and it is so low maintenance i barely do anything. if you’re interested in the specs it is: •fluval edge 6g without the top •no heater • nano sponge filter for water movement • ferts every few weeks when i remember • water change every 1-2 months and top offs with either distilled or water from my goldfish tank weekly/bi-weekly depending on need • stocking: galaxy ricefish, pumpkin shrimp, cpo, lots of snails •fluval stratum mixed with fluorite as the substrate id love to hear your thoughts and suggestions !- 16 replies
