, the whole layering formula I use from top to bottom:
top 1/2 cm was fully sphagnum peat moss
4 cm of 30 sphagnum peat moss, 50 perlite and 20 aquarium sand
4 cm of aquarium sand
bottom was a tear off layer of aquarium filter fibre to stop medium from flowing off
I'm using the 1/2cm of full sphagnum peat moss to indicate when to water it, I plan to cover it but still looking for transparent cover, kinda busy up to date
One of the ceph in the orange pot died after I left them out under the rain few months back, another recovered and start growing, but overall, slooooowwww
btw, may I know what is recommended for the top layering?
