    My Road to IAPLC 2017

    My 1000L tank is running for over 1,5 year now, and everything is working the way I would like to. This combined with the fact that I finally got some time to maintain the tank, did made me think of rescaping the tank for IAPLC (or another contest). I will try to update this journal as often as...

    Wabi-kusa 10.0

    Saw this image on the www and needed to share it: This man planted one seed in 1960 and only opened the bottle in 1972 to water it. Since than it has been sealed and is growing vigorously as you can see. Eat that Amano! :-P

    Temperature as limiting factor

    I got a nano cube which is unheated. Although water parameters and fertilization are kept the same (90% water change so quite stable). I do notice plant growth slowed down lately. Not in all plants, M. umbrosum seems to grow just as fast, as does the mosses. But all Rotala species and Persicaria...

    Which parameters do fish care about?

    In (old) books you always read about the importance of pH for your fish. Also the hardness seems to be important and alkalinity, KH, GH and TH are frequently mentioned. Same thing for TDS. I want to know what fish really notice and how. For example, will fish notice (and do they care) the...

    Sex Sphaerichthys vaillanti

    Although I'm mainly a plant enthousiast, I've always loved the colors on this fish. Till now I only had schooling fish and an algae crew in my tank. But I could get these for a very nice price and they were colorful from the minute they arrived at the lfs I work. So I took the 4 most beautiful...

    Dutch Nature style

    Being Dutch and leaving the paths of my ancestors, I explored nature style. Made half a dozen scapes till now and some failed rigorously, others just missed the X factor. From Iwagumi till collecteritus, but I'll show you the latest (almost) 400L tank. Remember most pictures are just mobile made...
