Garren Posted April 22 Share Posted April 22 Hello All, DAY 1 Welcome in my journey of a new 75gal Dirted Tank Build. Setup with 1" dirted bottom, capped with 2.5 Inch of sand. Filled and added hard scape, filters, light, and some plants. Awaiting for more plants to come in. Day 2 Added 2 nano fish. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garren Posted April 24 Author Share Posted April 24 Day 5 The last of my plants came in and now are in the tank. Added a nerite snail and one amano shrimp as some hair algae came in on the plants. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garren Posted April 27 Author Share Posted April 27 Day 7 Had to quickly transfer the rest of my fish from my old tank as the water parameters were off. So all the fish are in their new home. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garren Posted April 28 Author Share Posted April 28 Day 8 All is well and everyone is forging. I only feed about every two days with a few pellets for my bottom feeders and brine shrimp for the others. This allows the fish to naturally forge and clean up their home. I had some hair algae and noticed all the endlers have been eating it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PonyPlantedTanks Posted May 10 Share Posted May 10 Lovely tank so far! I’m sure once your plants get rooted deep enough they’re going to take off and fill up that tank🤩 Is that a sparkling gourami I see??! How do you like them? Those are definitely a bucket list fish for me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
