Greetings all,
After doing some reading I have realised that my tank light (60 cm 20 watt tube) may be a little on the powerful side.
Shortly after finding that out I read this thread on creating a moss wall:
http://www.caudata.org/forum/f46-be...ubstrate/71451-how-create-java-moss-wall.html
30 mins later and with some fiddling in powerpoint I have come up with an idea.
I would love some feedback on whether people think it's good, bad, ugly or just plain won't work for some reason.
The ceiling will be held in place by resting on suctioned hooks. Also planning on having some kind of hinge mechanism on one side, not sure how this will work til I go to the hardware store and have a look around.
The pros as I see it are:
Shade for Axolotls
Still keep Nitrate munching plants
Potential to house shrimp in upper layer? I imagine they will move around a fair bit but still...
Axo's still have access to surface if necessary
Cons I can think of:
Might be a pain when trying to vaccuum tank/feeding time
Cheers in advance,
-D-
