My Aquascape :) Finally Finished

[JohnRossDele]

hi all, heres my pics from what had bird ####, lotsa dirt, tiny insects, spider egg sacs and muck in it, untill i turned it into a masterpiece for my lovely breeding pair of kribs Romeo & Juliet

heres when i just got it off my friend for free, i can see why she didnt want it no more

heres when i had just cleaned the glass & literally power washed it!

and finally the aquascape im still have to change the background (wallpaper) it was to small lol

rate out of ten and say what you would change and why

 

[lordofthesea]

very nice !

good luck getting the kribs not to mess up the nice substrate though!!!

 

[JohnRossDele]

yeah i was thinking that!

so out of ten what do you think

 

[Geoff1991]

Id give that an 8

Nothing wrong with it, i just prefer heavily planted tanks...

7/10 the random pieces of gravel I would change to ones all of the same colour perhaps pure white, also i would section them to an area instead of sprinkling across the entirety. The ceramic pot on the right doesn't fit in with the rest of the tank scheme which is predominantly natural, I would either seed it with algae by placing it in a tub outside in a spot with as much sunshine as practical for a couple of weeks this ill gunk it up with algae or you could super glue java moss to it

i have a tank like that under the stairs.... 2ft cube , i might use it !

yours looks cool 6/10

the stones you have placed look *man made*

 

[Geoff1991]

I think the stones would look more natural if you had them together spilling out of the pot or something...

 

[bae1994]

id give 9/10 as i love cube tanks

 

[cheesy feet]

awesome, could bet those pebbles will be covered up in no time though

 

[indigoj]

LOL those pebbles are pretty but kribs are major diggers.

If you can, try to split that pot in half (top to bottom) and rather than superglue anything to it then hide it with some plants and pieces of slate.

For kribs I'd plant a bit heavier too - they'll feel more secure. Plastic plants are fine.

10/10 for effort, 7/10 for overall visuals.

looks lovely

good idea hmm maybe ill change it to look like that, good thinkin

 

[JohnRossDele]

i got a new background and put seaview on it so it would stand out more i also got more plants (3 more small plants to be exact), i ordered in java moss for the cereamic pot, im getting a flexible air curtain & im sectioning the pebble stones of to an area...anything else?

could i use sea view or would this be toxic (to stick the java moss on the pot) would it even work to use that?!

 

[JohnRossDele]

would they even breed with only 2 caves (coconut and pot)
