Thanks mate!Joecoral said:Nice shot, looks great George! Like the naturalness of it 😀
Thanks mate!aaronnorth said:That tank looks nice too
Thanks, Andy. I wonder how many switch from marine to planted and vice-versa? Interesting. I know there's plenty of guys that do both too, of course.andy said:I have a lovely 18" cube sitting in my shed...all drilled for a sump just waiting for that time to set up a nano reef. Kept reefs for over 20 years but the allure of the planted tank made me give up.
Good luck

It's an awesome hobby, whatever your taste... 😀

JamesM said:Totally, but I have a thing for the dark and miserable too I thinking of a dark gloomy scape with some blind cave fish...
George Farmer said:Good point, John!
Don't get me wrong - I couldn't live with this style of tank long-term per se. I'm more excited about the learning experiences than the aesthetics right now.
It's interesting, as I'm sure as I attempt more biotopes - non-planted, fully planted, marine, brackish, temperate UK etc. I'll gather new ideas and techniques that I can take forward to my big long-term project I have planned for my living room....
Cheers, all!
