Dong Hu Gorge

[Aquamaniac Fishtanks]

Amazing rockscape. I really love this tank. It will look even better once the moss is grown, just be patient.
Easy said than done I know.

I thought moss grew a bit quicker but I didn't notice the date you started, I thought it had been in longer than that. Maybe I haven't got the patience to try something like this!

Lucky that It's not the only tank I have otherwise I probably wouldn't be able to wait too...I know that fissidense moss isn't the fastest grower, but it's the best one for this scape I think

I've taken some pictures of the tank and some of the locals....(does anyone know what kind of fish this is?)

 

[Andy D]

The scape is coming along nicely!

The fish looks like a type of Loach - Loach Species Index — Loaches Online

Nice website...I think it's a loach indeed, lets see if I can Recognise them better when they grow up

That's a very interesting concept. A lit gorge.

Still looking good Martin.

I'm curious, along the sides of your tank there's a small gap between the glass and rocks that looks too narrow to clean, does the white backing on the glass help stop algae growing down there?

No algae growing there as of yet, not much light in that gap I can clean it with a small paint brush though)...I am planning to put some more moss in that gap after Fissidense has grown more...the white backing is mainly there because the few from the side isn't nice

nice to seem teh moss take root and fill out... will be watching with interest.

The tank is really coming along nicely without mayor problems. I forgot to turn on the CO2 a few times and got some BBA as result, but the plants overgrown them and most of it is gone.

the HC finaly grow a bit over the "mountain"

The last photo, stunning.

Wow! 2nd photo is a perfect example of tricking the eye regarding depth of the tank. And I love the overall look with the emersed growth in #3

Really well done
