Hi guys,

Whoever is interested in The Art of the Planted Aquarium contest, being organized in Hannover, Germany, might be interested in this thread, as well :) I'll be posting here movies with aquascapes from 2011 (short, refreshed version of my previous, long movie) and 2012, as I'm going there this weekend, to film as much as I can :)

Here is the first movie of 2011 contest, showing layout made by Dan Crawford and George Farmer. I think you might have heard of those guys before... ;)

Cheers,

I'm gutted I can't make the 2012 show. :(
Ouch... Too bad... :( Is there anyone from UKAPS taking part in the contest this year...?
 
George Farmer said:
Not sure mate. I hope so. I think a UK presence would be great.
I'll keep my eyes peeled in Hannover, for anyone looking "UKAPS-ish" ;)
 
Ed will be there, he will support me in the XL category.

It is a pity George, you can't make it, I was looking to meet you there :?
 
Yep, will try to put up a little photo review and compare it to aquatics live. Very excited already.
 
And here are another tanks from 2011 contest - Marcel Dykierek, Michal Maciejewicz, Jens Helemann and Adrie Baumann:

Next movies will be from 2012 - the level of the contest was really high this year, there are a lot of good tanks, and altogether there were over 30 XL aquariums, and over 30 Nano aquariums. I barely have had time to film what I wanted, and I didn't film all the tanks! First part of the report coming soon! :)
 
Hi guys,

Finally, the time has come to post newest movies, recorded by me this year in Hannover. I really enjoyed my visit to the Heimtiermesse, and the quality of some aquascapes was truly amazing! Here are first three movies, showing tanks which took places 1-5:



...places 6-10:



...and some tanks which didn't take any place, but I think they are worth showing, too:



Other movies from Hannover 2012 aquascaping contest coming soon! :)

Why are all the good shows do far away :(

Grass is always greener on the other side of the river ;) But hey, what about Aquatics Live 2012 in London? It's supposed to be much bigger than 2011 edition :)
