Introduction to Flora & Fauna in Golden Shine Tank

A picture is worth a thousand words.. enjoy the photo taken.. ^^

Flora in my tank

Hemianthus Callitrichoides (HC) newly introduce to my tank, just 1 day old.. :p

 Blyxa Japonica i same old as my HC

Anubias Nana same old as Blyxa

Hygrophila polysperma Rosanervig recently i only know it's name.. this plant is very sturdy.. it's with me before even i have this tank.. it survive in low light, low mineral tank.. today.. they are happy and growing fast like F1..

another easy & fast growing.. Limnophila sessiliflora, nice for background and hiding place.. my little black molly love it..

the focus should be the plant on left.. it was Sagittaria Subulata..

of cause is not Anubias nana.. it just havent fully grown Anubias Barteri..

This is a trophy gain from Pisang Waterfall trip wth my buddy.. i wonder what type of moss is this.. it's still alive.. when we pick it up, it's not submerge yet.. it was still at side of the river near the tree..

same as above.. a trophy.. it's a piece of tree bark i tear off from a fallen tree trunk.. i suspect it was coral moss or star moss ??

miniature view from bottom of the tank..

Fish : Becareful When Choose Fish for Aquascape

Ok, Lets share my experience which spoiled my setup in my fist time do aquascape. I did alot of research b4 start, everything ready with minimum budget but its complete requirement. Lighting, Filter, Co2, Fertz, Bacteria, Soil and plants. sound good right? then I do the setup and wait 4 days for the beneficial bacteria to settle down and grow. Beneficial bacteria is for breakdown fish waste and dead plant while blablabla... so u cant change the setting inside, dont kacau the cycle. But I forgot about fishes.

		First Batch 20 Red Eye Balloon Masuk... I brought 20 and really nice swim here and there so cute... then slurp slurp makan Glossostigma aku sampai habis.. I have to Take out one by one with Net and they hide here and there... the process taking them out is a mess... Clouding water, disturb beneficial bacteria growth and plants float up... Balloon all removed.
		Then I reset again with new carpet plant - Hydrocotyle Tripartita Then second Batch 3 Gaurami Masuk, Slurp Slurp... All leaf kena bite.. Cibai ah... go search net said they like vege.. Diu Lo, Hai Lat! All removed again.
		Then Why Not Angel Fish... But Wait.. research sin... oh shit angel fish damn nice but it bite plants...Lucky I didnt buy
		Chiclid My sis Have one and I put a Big Java Fern in there, Then it bite A big Hole on the leaf because it block his way, then It dig sand and soil make a big Meteor Hole... Totally not recomended for aquascaping. Moreover Chiclid like to live in rocks and caves.

Above is just my experience, There is more fish that bite plants. So research it before buy.

And the winner is...

Black Molly is Surface Cleaner, a Must Have too.

At beginning of my aquarium setup until now, Im having a hard time with my aquarium water, Its really oily on the surface. Its very serious until u can see the oiliness turn rainbowish, red, blue green. Viewing from the bottom to top, the oil block 30% of the lights which is not good for my plant. And so i have to do 40% water changes every 4 days because really beh tahan, I need use tube suck the surface and really hard to do. I know the oiliness comes from fish pallet, thats why I changed different brand but the problem still there, today change water, tomorow oily, I become fedup so i just fed my fish once a day and getting less so the water can tahan longer.

Remember that day I go to Salak South buy lights, I tel that shopkeeper my water condition, and he answered me, Black Molly, Just put one in there your problem solve. Black Molly eat most of the things from surface include oil. Huh? cant believe it, But gimme 2 anyway.. RM1 each only.

We always heard about algae eater or bottom cleaner, but There is oil eater and top cleaner too... Black Molly! Cool

I back home put them on my tank, and they really on the top all the time keep sucking... Manyak colestrol tu....

Now my aquarium really no more oily on the surface, Amazing...
