Thanks I will look into the app, I'm sure there's are some scientific public domain catalogs now that I think about it. The main think I'll need to the leaves scaned flat. Here's a second update trying out a quick hardscape, the composition isn't great and I could do with more practice. :)

Yes at the moment I've just added a bunch of rocks and driftwood but I also have some generic plants/coral and plans to add fish, shrimp etc to the library. Ideally long term I would like to create accurate plants using scans however and I was thinking if the project gains enough interest, users...

Update #01: Demo Showcase Video Just recorded this video today and I have updated the thread.

I've just cleared a large shed and I would like to use its ample space for creating Aquascapes, Terrariums, Plaudariums and growing bonsai trees. Although I'm on a budget, I have some left over tanks to use and get me started. I will need to invest in some lighting, pumps, etc. I have plans for...

Edit: I've updated this thread with the official name of the Aquascape simulator I'm working on which is now called 'Oxygen Sim'. I will update this thread with future progress including a new video below. About the Simulator: Oxygen Sim is a PC simulator also featuring an incredibly immersive...

Hey everyone, I wanted to share a short film/video that I created last night. I am really pleased with how the video turned out, it was a very spur of the moment creation. My setup is a small ~15ltr tank sitting on a window seel, non-Co2, my light does not even fit length ways and the water pump...

Thanks for adding to the list, C appears to not be Ranuculus Inundatus though. In my tank C grows a long/thick stem and several offshoots from its roots. It is actually the fastest growing plant in my tank and grows long spreading leaves too, the Ranuculus Inundatus seems to be smaller. A...

As you can see my small 23 litre tank is now thick with plants. I know some of the plants names however some came in bundles so I would like help identifying those. Here is a list of the plants I have identified so far after searching my purchase history: A. B. C. D. Micranthemum Umbrosum? E. F...

(I hope this is the correct section to post this?) I have found that many artist and designers are totally unaware of the aquascaping art. When I set up my Pintrest account my aquascaping pins got a lot of attention, as a result I would like to create a blog article on aquascaping. I want to...

Yeah I am really happy with the mid and background plants, I am hoping the forground plants will start to carpet a little althogh those plants have have not been in the tank aslong. Quick question, will trimming the hairgrass and other foreground plants encourage faster growth or should I let...

Update 04th November [1 Month Old Tank] Thanks mark and I am back again :P, I thought I would do another update as is now 1 month today since I started the tank and this journal. This will probably be the last for a couple of months as I have been updating a fair bit so I will let it grow out...

After doing a search on Google it appears so. I only thought they were Cloud Minnows as brother who first got the fish told men they were, I am sure the LFS will take them anyway. :P

* [19th October Update] * Thanks everyone for the comments, my tank is certainly starting to take shape :D. I have been struggling with the carpet plants however, the HC Cuba and Riccia Fluitans have not been growing well, this might be because I have only been using liquid carbon for about a...

My journal has floated down the bottom without a comment but here is another update lol. :lol: * [08th October Update] * "Sorry about pic quality, as mentioned my DSLR is broke" As you can see it has transformed quite a bit already, at the moment my plan is to make the tank as natural...

Hey all, originally I was planning on getting a 90litre optiwhite tank though I ended up moving into a bigger room downstairs and spent lots redecorating and getting new stuff. Instead I took the small tank out of the living room which my family had set up with 3 Cloud Minnows, multicolour...
