40g Long Naturally sun-lit tank

Thank you :)
So inspiring. Hopefully it won't be long before my tank is overgrown like yours.

Sold big branches of green nd ochtodes over the week. Hopefully, the red will start recovering soon :)
Your air plant idea sounds super cool! You could be right about the ochtodes.

Sharing a top-down view of the Rics after receiving natural sunlight for the whole day. The LEDs are turned on only in the late evening.

Decided to give a tank a slightly new look with a slim LED bar and light hanger. Was inspired by how some of the freshwater planted tank looked so natural as a paludarium, hence, trying to do a marine version. Gonna cover the light hanger with more greens.

It is still a natural sunlit tank, with macros and lots of mushrooms.

Thank you Michael :)

LOL, yea i guess air plants are commonly used in the limited marine paludarium we see.

Thought they are sensitive to saltwater, I'm thinking it might be possible to bring them closer to the waterline, if we run a hose which slowly trickle freshwater onto the air plants, which also serve as a ATO to the tank.

Your tank looks great! I like the air plants too. Lots of colors and textures!
 
I would think you could move them closer. That's a cool idea!

The new light has great color. Nice mushroom collection too!
