Wow! Love the overhanging plant on the wood, what is it?

P

Micranthemum 'Monte Carlo' mixed with some kind of moss.

Impressive, tautietiWhy your light fixture is so high?To get less PAR's?

Thanks. Actually to make all things slower. Anyway I can't stop monte carlo from growing and it is a PITA to trim it once a two weeks.

Sahyadria denisonii

Hi all,

Denisonii's are out. Purchased more Hyphessobrycon amandae but still need more. I wasn't able to control Echinodorus latifolius in right back corner so decided to remove it and now I have a headache what should be planted instead. Thinking about Cryptocoryne crispatula var. tonkinensis or Cryptocoryne spiralis "B 20". Have any ideas? Planted 3 Eriocaulon "Poliaris" in the center although they do not look natural in this layout so probably will go out as well. Yet another poor quality photo.

Not a bad photo...but more to the point an awesome scape

Hi EdwinK Simply Stunning Exquisite Just Wow congratulations

 

[tmiravent]

Nice! I like the Polaris, maybe not so near each other. I would try to point specific points in the layout with polaris. Nice work, cheers!

Look what I've found in my filter. Grey worm is some kind of planaria but what is the red one?



 

[Daveslaney]

No idea about the worms.
But that is a fantastic scape. First class job.

 

[tim]

Tubifex maybe ??

New inhabitant - Anubias sp. 'pangolino'

You have it several months now. Can you say whether submersed form of that pangolino is different from emersed photos all aroud internet. At least it seems submersed has lighter color? What about shape of the leaves? Maybe you have fresh photo? Thx

I agree with Tim, it looks like it is either a <"Naididae"> or a <"Lumbriculidae"> worm.

With the Planaria type worm you need to watch it move, if it glides it is a Planaria, if it loops it is a Leech.

I pay attention to the color but so far didn't notice a change in color or leave shape. It is still in transition phase I guess. When I get back from vacation I'll take a photo for you.

 

[EdwinK]

You can see new leaves of "pangolino" in the below photo:

So I guess they will stay a bit brighter than the emersed ones.

[Daveslaney]

Cant see the photo?
How do you find the achilles doing submerged? Got one myself this week have put it in tank. But was told they have a tendency to melt when submerged?

 

[EdwinK]

I've got achilles about a year now and it is melting and growing back again. Didn't improve at all since I placed it in the tank. Guess that my tank water just isn't suitable for it.

[Daveslaney]

Ok thanks. I have heard this is how it seems to go with achilles when submerged. But grown imersed they never get a decent colour and leaf pattern either. Have put mine in the tank and will see how it goes.

 

[EdwinK]

Not much to report. Added C. costata behind the stone on the right hand side.
