My Set Up
Lighting;
Aquatic Life dual T5, 1 35 Watt 6k and 1 35 Watt Roseate bulb.
I will replace the 6k and see how the 10k looks.
Filtration;
Ehiem 2213
Substrate;
12L of Amazonia Aquasoil
Plants; (as of now, I am a plant noob)
Eleocharis Parvula
Hemianthus Callitricoids
Fauna; (after cycle)
12+ Corydoras Pygmaeus
2 Zebra Otos
Shrimp (unsure, I am a shrimp noob, but I have RCS down lol)
Stones;
15 lbs. Seiryu Stones
CO2
ISTA 45g CO2 Supply Set
ISTA 3 in 1 Diffuser
(Will be buying a better C02 set up as this one isnt up to what I want/need)
I needed something small that will be able to be hidden behind the tank, due to where the tank will be set up. I will probably regret getting such a small set up in the long run.
I ordered a piece of branch wood from ADI, hoping it comes in soon. It looks like a tree and looks to be blowing to the side.
As of right now this is how it looks. I flooded the tank last night and have C02 running until it runs out since the valve is leaking...
Still need a few rocks but here it is..
I have had some issues setting up, and got aggravated last night.
Does the ehiem 2213 have to be set up below the tank?
I am just going to buy a better C02 set up, the ISTA one I had leaks out C02 from the valve to open and close it. Any recommendations? Is anyone locally selling a complete set up with 5 lb bottle?
I need to run and buy some more hose to connect the ehiem if I have to set it lower than the tank because I cut the one I had to make it shorter thinking I would be able to set it on the same level as the tank, but it didnt want to prime.
I have a aquaclear 20 on it right now until I get the ehiem up and running.
I am sure I left a few things out but I will try to edit as I remember. I didnt remember to get a pic of the tank after I flooded it, I will grab one after I do my 1st water change today.

Thanks for looking, and all advice is welcome.
