obviously thats done on a larger scape, but i reckon you'd pull it off. But for now the tanks looking good. I would extend the Riccia, get it going all over the open ground. Thats just me though.

Well i haven't been on the site in a long while... just under a year in fact due to everything setting down with very little problems, which thanks to you guys i knew how to go around fixing without delay

So... the tank has been left now in its current state for roughly 7 months or so, same inhabitants and plants in all that time time to. Haven't had any deaths of any sort and the plants are flourishing even with flowers appearing at the moment and apart from one moss ball that has seen better days everything is good

My two angel fish have grown dramatically alongside my BN plec, my armourd shrimp have nearly doubled in size also and are starting to take a nice tone of blue (iphone picture not the best)

Albino corys has spawned a few times lately so they must be happy, and even the little betta from the tank in my bedroom has settled to his own little corner amongst the plants at the front left of the tank and regularly comes out to explore. Golden nugget plec hasn't grown much in the time iv had it although its out regular and eats plenty so must be healthy



Any way i will some typing and let some pictures do some talking

Even the plants have been flowering for the first time.

Hey, no have never used co2 although i did use liquid carbon for a short period months ago but the habit just died off, would like to used co2 but i think it will just be hassle... no?

Thanks dude, doing that i find helps alot i looked and loads of tanks on here and it kind of helps you decided what you want and what you are able to archive just by taking little ideas off each, like the moss bridge i used to have the the carpet look etc

Cheers for looking guys,

Great tank! Really clean and bold look to the hardscape and planting.

No advice here...just keep doing what you're doing!

 

[Xraymark]

Some of those pics would be a contender in FOTM + tank.
All good.

 

[Welshweeks]

Simply stunning, well done.

 

[Iiriva]

Oh wow, this is simply stunning! I really liked the wooden "arch" with moss on it.

Keep up the good work!
