[kizno1]

this is how it did look a few weeks ago. i hated it it was all plastic plants because i didnt have much money when i set up the tank


then it looked like this


and now this


its still not finnished i still have another 3 big bits of wood soking and i want to get some more live plants. here they are the bit thats alredy in the tank is the smallest bit

the real plants are a nice improvement. the tank will look great when they fill out.

i think it will look alot nicer once i get the wood in aswell but its just taking soo long to soak because the big bit is 3 1/2 foot and about 2"+ thick

i hear you there i remember a piece of redmoor root i got for my tank i had to soak for almost 8 weeks and even after that i had to weigh it down with rocks for a week or so . its worth the time and effort tho. are you going to have planst on the wood?

 

[kizno1]

yh they have been soaking for about 2 weeks now. im not to bothered though because the tank is still beter than it was and i found the wood in the forest round the corner from my house and sanded it so its not like i spent loads of money and am going to have to wait for agers to get it in. i dont know i might do but i quite like just the wood on its own but im defently going to get a few more plants

not that good of a pic but the only one i could find

Looks like you have planted your java ferns into the substrate though. They should be attatched to bogwood or stones.
