River Valley - The Hardscape

So… The Journey begins…
Tear down my previous setup.  Countless shrimps and some Harlequin rasbora (Harlequin) and some crypts in a small container.  
The 4ft rimless tank arrive one month ago and this time round going LED light.  Hopefully it work?  Anyway I still have my PL light but need to replace the plastic cover.  Maybe Mr. Chan at NA can help…


LED Light

In preparation, I have picked up the basic essentials for a planted tank which is the soil and trying the new ADA aqua soil Amazonia.  Also plenty of rocks from Green Chapter.  


Reusing  the Eheim filter and filter media washed and ready to house the bacteria.
Also pick up a Lily pipe set.  Less than half the price of a ADA brand J
Existing aquascaping tools really to make a difference! 

  
Going low tech so NO CO2.  Hopefully it will works…
Arranging the Iwagumi scape (for countless time…).  This is the final version.
Final version of the scape
There is some left over fert and in goes the soil and hopefully the slop at the back can hold.

The Iwagumi arrangement can or not?  Swee bo?  Comments are welcome.
