Very nice use of floating/surface plants for shade effect,cheers mark
thanks dorian and mark,i used the floating plants to reduce the lighting, i have 2x 24watt t5s in it and without co2 injection the light was a bit strong.that said the bolivian rams and five banded barbs love the dark areas. all the best roy.

Very pleasant and peaceful.
Very nice indeed, Mr P.
What makes this work is the pleasant contrast of dark and light colours, and selection of textures, all exaggerated by the dappled light from the floaters. The crypts are star of the show here, my all-time favourite plant!
Your cherry barbs must be very happy in there!
Thanks for sharing.

the crypts have done very well in there,the substrate is a mix of akadama and brown flora base,(quite a good colour match)the plant colours have been a lot better than my other setup which has eco complete in it.i use liquid carbon every day and 2ml of neutro + week
all the best ,roy.
