I have a bigger fish tank. Actually I got it about 9 weeks ago and have been setting it up with a soil and sand substrate after getting all excited after watching some YouTube videos. My how times have changed. Like most of my hobbies I had a flash of inspiration, had to calm down and do some actual research and then get into the process of setting it all up. It is heavily planted and has settled into a fairly natural state after about 8 weeks. The last few weeks have seen new fish added and the tank is re-balancing nicely. It’s a lot less work than the previous effort and at 127 litres is quite a bit more roomy. I still take real pleasure from watching the little underwater world do its thing.
