Fred, they're beautiful ! Really nice thought from your colleagues ! Enjoy the retirement !! Send us a few updated photos of them in the pond. I miss seeing all the wonderful photos of your garden !!

Mine just bubbles up the co2 pipe and into the diffuser and on into the aquarium. Have not figured out how to stop this, but once it's set I only refill it on water change day ! Don't see the need to have it filled all the time once the co2 indicator remains about the same colour change daily...

I I just love this scape, I think my favorite I have seen !

Photo of outflow and powerheads

Thanks foxfish, But I would appreciate it if you would go a little into detail with my powerhead placement [emoji9][emoji9][emoji15] I think I'm just confusing myself with contradictory posts and articles all over the place ! As for a £15 ph pen, are they all about as good as each other ? Or...

This is a good photo on one leaf, think it's bba but a newcomer to planted aquarium so open to correction, at least bga can be managed with blackout! The green colour in the other photos is where I have treated with easycarbo and it dying. Open to any suggestions though!

Ok will try to upload photos [emoji15] not great at this stuff ! My overflow Sump box Sump Co2 system Diffuser Algae Full aquarium shot I don't have a ph pen, just beyond my budget at the moment but maybe can stretch to one at the start of next month if it may help...

Thanks rebel, I have full pressured co2 running. It starts 3 hours before lights on and off an hour before lights off. I am directly dosing easycarbo directly onto some of my plants to try to keep them free and only just about keeping up with these from the new or returning growth of bba...

I hardly know where to start, I have read so much on this forum and all over the Internet and still can't get on top of my bba outbreak! My tank is approx 500l with sump and fairly heavily planted, I'm using easy life Ferts in the recommended quantities, and co2 till my my drop checker...

Blue neon stiphodon goby, need specific conditions and feeding, high flow high oxygen and algae to survive. Nice well fed young example though

Hey guys, I've had to add two power heads to my (approx) 500 liter planted aquarium. First of all not sure if the power heads are placed right but that is beside the point, I have minimized the affect on my longer stem plants but still some are being taken a little with the current. Is it ok...

So informative, love it guys !!

I find my eye drawn from one side of the scape to the other, very pleasing. Really like it

I'm not experienced in this aquascapeing but I'm having the same problem, my best idea is that my flow is less than a 5th of what it should be. Ferts and co2 are not reaching this part of the tank, don't know how your set up works but maybe the same problems as me ? Hope this helps

Wow, looks class !!! Love the sense of scale, looks like a huge mountain range in the alps during the tour when the helicopters do their "dramatic footage" looks fab

Thanks so much for all the replies!! I'm going to go through the lists and pick a couple. Ye are the most helpful group of people on the net, Thanks for all the help Michael

Hey, having great difficulty finding this plant for delivery to Ireland. Any suggestions where I could get this from. Again it's called Bucephalandra cf. motleyana 'Melawi. Regards Michael

What an enjoyable thread ! Just read from start to finish and really enjoyed it. Would love to try it sometime but not sure if I could

Looks great ! Love to see these tanks progress! I'm amazed at how many plant species ye use in the scrapes ! I assumed that ye only use 5 or 6 different species! Any way looks great look forward to following your progress!

Again thanks so much for the advice ! I think I'm going to move all wood to one corner and a rock scape at the other side (well rocks wrapping around sump box imbedded with. Sand and plant substrate). With montycarlo and Java moss growing through and over. I would also like an open area with...

Trying to figure out how to do something like this, I love your tank! Amazing job! And even more impressive as its your first scape ! Maybe in 6 months or so I will have something resembling it. Great job

Thanks so much for all the great, informative, constructive and educational posts !! Ye put so much work into helping me out. As a novice aquascaper and frankly not very arty ! (I'd generally be happier building a cabinet and tank than scaping one [emoji4]) the help is going to be the...

I have worked so hard on this aquarium, I've created scapes on the floor, used all my wood from old projects, taken it all out again ! Bought new wood and taken all mine out !!!! Here are a few photos of scape as it is now ....... And some of my earlier attempts. Any input, suggestions...

Good idea with the extra plants floating ! I will get these after my lights out experiment for 4 days of the weekend when I'm going to the country! Good spot on the sump ! When this craze got out of hand first thing I did was check out the filter sponges. I had only cleaned them out 3 weeks...

Hey Iain, Thanks for reply and welcome :) I'll give that blackout a go ! I have just in the last week or so got 4 corrie sterabi and two ottos. Is this sufficient clean up crew for now or would more than this be necessary to deal with this black out? Do you think my dosing of ferts is...

Hey guys, It's my first post here, I've been looking around for ages on the site and it's a great resource! Thanks for it. A little bit of background on me, I'm 38 years old and living in Ireland. If kept fish without a break since I was 7. Have had lots of tanks and spices of fish over the...
