Re: rsm 250 after 12 weeks

For me, a tank should always have sand, but if i dont look down, yours is looking great

Is there a reason why you have no sand ?

What a difference after 12 days! Coralline algae sure does like to grow first on plastic!

It's common in italy to think that the sand can create some problems with no3 and po4 in the first period. Some of the most beautiful tank that I see in one of the principal italian acquarium forum are without the sand.
I wait to have a stable chemical parameters to put in the sand maybe after the summer.

Some other pictures:

Re: rsm 250 after 12 weeks

Very nice gianluca - in just 12 weeks. Although my line of thinking is slightly different from yours, I started with 30kg live sand - first thing I put in the tank

Re: rsm 250 after 12 weeks

aah..... the BB versus sand debate! I prefer sand myself, but am thinking about not adding any until six months in my new tank (once I start it!).


Coming along nicely anyway!
