I'am not 100% sure but I think the pendant is a old version from the Duplaelectra (Dupla - Germany). With 2 x 150 Watt HQI and 2 x 24 Watt (Compact Light - in the middle) I use HQI daylight bulbs with 6.500 Kelvin...or 6.000 Kelvin from Osram Best regards, Oliver

Hi Oliver, another nice tank, although I think it's a bit too bushy on the left side. I prefer some of your more "organised", or should I say designed, aquascapes. A question about the lighting: What is the brand of this pendant? Usually the two HQI lamps are too narrow so that the sides of the tank are not bright enough. I would be interested in knowing which brand you use. What are the colour temperatures of the HQI bulbs and tubes? Thanks in advance. Keep creating ; )

<What sort of fertilized sand do you use ? I use in this tank the original fertilized sand mix from Dennerle. Called "Dennerle Depot". <I think it's high for PH 6.80, can you confirm ? <And what are the ohers parameters as GH, CO2, FE level ? <How many liters are changed, every day or every week ? It is possible that the KH it is a little bit lower but I think it is about 6-8. I only use tab water for this tank, no osmose water. The CO2 is dosing automatically PH controller. At the moment I don't know the other parameters, at my most tanks I don't check the parameter so much because I must take care a lot of tanks. I rely on my instinct at the most tanks. Change 30% water every week. Best regards, Oliver
