Thanks Dude, your tank is coming along very nicely!chilled84 said:Very nice andy, Your scapes are always fresh looking. Hope my standards can brush up to this one day.
Cheers ! Looking forward to seeing your 5ft planted!MarineHart said:Looks very nice indeed Andy, my first planted tank is getting closer with hopefully only one Stingray left to sell before I can get started!
paul.in.kendal said:This is looking terrific, Andy. I don't think the 50:50 split is worth worrying about. The Rule of Thirds is misnamed - it's a guideline, not a strict rule. If you'd put a main focal point smack bang in the centre (as if you would!), that'd be different, but this is merely a transition.
With the hydrocotyle, do you find it uproots easily? Mine does, and I've given up trying to replant it - I just chop the floaty bits off! And that glosso is looking more attractive all the time...
Love the gouramis, too. I started this hobby for the plants - not really interested in the fish. But I think they're steadily getting to me!
john starkey said:Hi Andy,gorgeous little scape,i like the fact that you do things your way and try things we dont normally see,
great work,i wish i could sell my big setup so i can have two smaller ones which would make life easier,but if i am stuck with it i wont let it get run down,i have a big rescape planned for the summer (with Dans help i hope)it will be a low light moss and ferns setup,
regards john.
Neil,cheers! easier to take photos of than most fish as they like to sit still, most maidenhead aquatics can get these now.NeilW said:Awesome fish, I'm jealous. Shame my 'sumatran stiphodon' was a loach in disguise, I'll keep these guys in mind if/when I get a bigger tank. Lovely pictures too btw!

Andy can I ask you something please. You know when you first got the gobies did the hide away for a few days because mine seems to be hiding/ or dug a hole. I can see them anywhere
Cheers, i think they are great and one of the reasons i created this scape with a beach feel to it.hydrophyte said:Those stiphodon are really cool. I hope to try some of those someday.
flygja said:Those gobies are insanely cute! Your photography skills have improved too. How does it feel to keep rolling in success?
flygja said:Just like planted tanks and aquascaping, academic knowledge is automatically gained through initial practice. Get your hands wet with a tank and commercial fertilisation, and suddenly a few months later we're reading up on EI methods and the science behind it
Krish's Bettas said:How many kinds of gobies do you have? (colours,species ect)
