Hi All
I've now broken down my previous scape The 3 Peaks, and while I collect more mini landscape rock and the right pieces of Azalea wood to start a 200L rainbow fish scape. I decided to start a project I've had the idea 1 year ago. I never started it because I did not know how to tackle the problems I knew it would throw at me recently a friend reminded me of eggcrate a material I knew would help me build this scape. I grabbed a broken fluval edge 23L tank which had a cracked top pain and I cut the top off giving me a rimless tank at the right size and dimensions to give this idea a go.
A little info on the idea:-

In the sprit of experiments ill post updates as i go and will post more photos that will share information on how I got to the end or didn't (fingers crossed for the former)
More updates to follow
Regards
Jonny

A little info on the idea:-
- I've never seen it done before (and I think I know why)
- it will push my hardscaping skills to the limit
- it will not have a filter
- It will have only emersed growth
- It will have roughly 10kg of dragon stone
- it may look terrible in the end
- IT COULD FAIL, as a scape and concept.
