Re: 80x35x45 Opti White - The Planning Stage I used "leca" to do my tank with a lot of height in the back :wink: : To save a bit substrate I took 2 pair of nylon stockings and filled with half a bag of Leca - I don't know what they are called outside Denmark... They look like this and are...

I've had mine for 3 years now without problems! The only problem I've had with 'em was when I dropped it into the sink when cleaning :roll: But if you want quality I can recommend CAL aqualabs!!! :thumbup:

I've experimented with the foreground... At the frontglass I've planted Glosso this will fade into HC Cuba and the HC will fade into Elantine Hydropiper. Perhaps it'll give a little depth perspective???

Thanks! Royal whiptails = Sturisoma panamense???

I'll keep that in mind next time. Also next time I'll make small recordings from different positions instead as the camera is very sensitive to "shaky hands" :roll: and make a movie from the clips! And thanks - Yes I love the use of pogo to "soften" the hardscape! I tried with E.parvula last...

Haha, the picture's a bit misleading when the water is bright yellow fluorescent!!! :lol: So NOT so naturel :roll: But thanks I'm also quite happy with this scape and will properbly keep it for a long time! The last scape wasn't good - the right side was wrong, so I finally redid the scape and...

Here's the new FTS: And this is with Esha2000 (medicine for fungus) :lol: :

Thanks, the water is clear now, so tonight I'll post some photos of the new scape! ;p

The tank is now empty and I'm redoing the scape. Same general idea, but some change i plants... E.parvula is gone and will be replaced with glosso and elantine hydropiper! The big lotus is gone and new plants like Ech.Indian Summer, R.Wallichii, Staurogyne, hemianthus umbrosum and Myriophyllum...

New pictures - with different camerasettings. If trying to find the best setting :lol: Just got my new water values: Carbondioxid at 12 oC (CO2) mg/l - 21 Hardness - permanent dH - 3,8 Hardness - carbonat dH - 16,5 Hardness - total dH - 20,1 Iron - total (Fe) mg/l - 0,2 Potassium (K+) mg/l...

It's not my choice - I'm not into Marimekko!!! :wink:

The whole idea and inspiration behind this aquarium is a desire to make a iwagumi, with some twists! The basic idea behind the look is a volcano /crater from where Anubias grows! The stones were some old ones I had lying around and the placement of the stones is not further considered, since I...

It's Nesaea sp. - Some of the nesaea sp. will be replaced with some green because I think it's too red at the moment!!! Perhaps Rotala sp. green or Heteranthera zosterifolia

New photo (8/12 2011): Fissidens: Hydrocotyle sp. Japan:

I actually don't know because they were in the lamp when I bought it... But my guess will be around the 5000-7000 kelvin according to the white colour the light has!

Latest photo (3/12 2011): The next step is Fissidens on the root in the left side and some mini Xmas (from Matt) on the slightly hidden root in the right side. And then I just need the plants to grow so I can begin to trim and shape them!!! :) Critique and ideas are more than welcome...

Thx :wink:

The water have cleared a bit and I've planted some Hydrocotyle sp. Japan i the middle... Now I only need to plant some Hygrophila. sp. Araguaia & Ludwigia Arcuata and perhaps some fissidens on the roots. Spiky or Xmas moss are also in consideration...

This scape "died" because I simply didn't have the time to the maintenance... :oops: School and work got in the way! But now I've decided to rescape and this is the result: Plantlist will come later :wink:

Actually it was a coincidence I found them... I saw a private sales add on a danish plant site (http://www.akvariumplanter.dk) and bid on them. It only said landscape rocks - nothing about size. I went home to the seller and almost passed out because of their size!!! I've never seen them in that...

Thanks, I thought the stockings idea was old, it hasn't reached the shores of England :lol: Update: my corys are tearing up the glosso and there's alot of flow in the tank which causes some of the rotala wallichii to float around in the tank, but hopefully it'll soon get some roots! :) But...

There's some buoyancy in them, but nothing the substrate won't fix. I also hope that it'll give me some extra filtercapacity in some form... Some also use big lavarocks, but the you won't be able to form the hills as you can with the stockings! :wink:

Haha thanks, I also have pictures with alot of algea, but it has taken alot of experience and tweaking to get them nice... I have finally reached the point where I'm having a ok know-how, but it has been a looooong journey!!! And there's still more tweaks and tricks I don't know, but that's the...

Thats right to save a bit substrate I took 2 pair of nylon stockings and filled with half a bag of Leca - I don't know what they are called outside Denmark... They look like this and are usually used in gardens or indoor planting:

Inputs and comments are welcome... If I'm missing any data, please write, then I'll try to post it!

Now to the info on the new tank setup: At first I used thes photo for inspiration on the depth: But in real life it wasn't an option. The hills were too steep and the substrate wouldn't hold their form unfortunately! :? Plantlist: Eriocaulon cinereum Singapurmoos - Vesicularia dubyana...

After gathering a lot of inspiration i Hannover I finally had the time to do a complete make over! My tank has been on quite a journey: From cichlids from Lake Victoria to planted aquarium. I've been trying almost all kinds of gadgets and DIY solutions. The evolution of the aquarium:
