This poster is an imposter. I don't see any red cherry shrimp. What have you done with the real LD?

Wow. Stunning colours. The layout reminds me of your old Australian Rainbow aquascape.

The tank has had no fish since the last update, and simonis were replaced with blue pearls competition - not deliberately removed. The amanos controlled the problem staghorn algae in the end, but there is now a fair amount of clado now on certain places on the wood that get direct sunlight...

Great movement in the tank. Beautiful!

Did the cherries outcompete the simonis? Also, is there really no filter in here for water motion? A heater? Do you feed it at all?

Ya it looks like dwarf sag but much much smaller and loves low tech. Here it is. http://www.ukaps.org/forum/threads/various-plants-for-sale.30035/

get some ranalisma from alastair. I think that would be awesome. Love the layout.

updates? :D

famous last words...

Have to visit ADC after your corporate meeting hehe. Was pretty cool to see those blue bolts eh?

nice! what's the shrimp that has the mottled colour on the first page? what's your Ph?

Re: GHOST TREES 1.0 "Growing In" It looks similar to one of the mosses I brought back in April. I am pretty sure that's the same one. I got it originally from LondonDragon, and he got it from some trade show in Holland I believe. You will find that it grows everywhere and starts appearing in...

Hey Ian, 'fraid that those photos are the best close-ups my camera can do. Red-nose do eat Clado and BBA, I don't know if they eat Spiro, thought there was a chance. They aren't available locally anywhere, so in the meantime I added 2 amanos. Will see if they make a dent.

Updates with photos. The afro moss is filling in nicely. Got a bit of Clado and Spirogyra in it, but will get a red-nose shrimp to take care of it. I am now successfully breeding theodoxus fluviatilis in here. The unfocused dot the glass in front of the driftwood is a baby. Have seen about 4...

Re: GHOST TREES 1.0 "Otto-Clean" Had no idea the water was any good in SF. Good to know.

Re: GHOST TREES 1.0 "Otto-Clean" Are you using RO water? As water in California is as hard as nails.

Re: *Update Day 26 of Dry Start* ADA 120 Do!aqua Glass Casca This tank is so epic I can barely believe it. The variety of plants and the diversity of aquascaping is truly amazing. can't wait to see it flooded!

Some more photos Bit of algae on the glass here, but you can really see the Afro moss and the new growth coming off of it. Little blurry, but you get the idea. The don't call it red-root floater for nothing. Apparently, it's the shrimp equivalent of mistletoe Here is the tank with the...

Re: @60%planted ADA 120 Do!aqua Glass Cascade Journal those mosses on the rocks are looking super natural. since you are doing a dry start, did you chop them up before you placed them on the rocks/wood at all?

Nope, no scrubbing. All the nerites work. I am actually worried now that they won't have much left to eat...

Mini update. As hoped, the freshwater nerites have destroyed the algae in the tank, you can only see a little bit now on the front glass-figures that they would leave that one spot heh. Unfortunately their shells are corroding because the Ph is only 6.7 and Kh 3. I think two have died because of...

whats the background?

Wow, it really is filling in fast. Really nice Steven, can't wait to see it when it all fills in.

Whoa, that looks like some predatory insect larva of some kind. I would not keep that with shrimp. Thanks for the update.

Re: Steve's "getting back on the horse" nano I like the look of that scape steve, and welcome back. One quick comment, I believe that is mini-bolbitis on your wood and not bolbitis difformis. Let us know how it grows for you!

Wow, these shrimp are so pretty. Great pic too.

Wow that is so cool that you are breeding them. Have you definitely found some little ones in your tank? Need to find me some in Britain, some way, some how. What do you mean that you think ammonia is a problem on your shrimp tank? If you are running a filter it should have cycled within the...

Hey Fishbeast I noticed you started posting again. Just curious, did you manage to breed the red-nose shrimps you got from aqua-green? I would be very curious to know how that turned out. Also some new tank pics would be great too. Best.

Yeah, I like how the Chocs hide under overhangs. Must look great in the setup you got Alan. Any updates?

Hiya Fishbeast, Any new developments? If you are still have problems with algae I would recommend big amano shrimps (at 2in probably big enough to avoid predation) or an army of MTS or Ramshorns snails. Considering you have HC the Ramshorns may be a better choice since they don't dig.

Hey T, any news on your Star Moss? Did it make it in the end or melt away? Any suggestions on how to keep it? I have a friend that just bought it and I want to help him keep it alive... Updated journal photos would be loverly too :p

crazy that you were able to get such dense growth without CO2. What the heck am I doing lugging this FE around anyway...

Hey, BTW, if anyone is interested, those awesome neon gobies that Andyh has are available by mail order here. http://shop.sweetknowleaquatics.co.uk/e ... %20Goby%22 Pretty cool!

I admire your scaping skills and green thumb. A real fascinating and beautiful aquascape! Gerard

Totally stunning tank. I love the anubias bonsai on the seiryu as well.
