Hey! My tap water is magical too! What a small world! Easycarbo is still Carbon. You are cheating, George. :lol:

Shame you are not in the US. I would take the cuttings.

Well-done! I like the first kind of forest-floor one best. But that is just me. All are lovely, though.

Very nice. I love the color combinations of a Dutch style. The red plants look great. Can't wait to see the scape mature more. I had a Dutch style too. Very fun tanks to work with. The 250g sounds intimidating. I will say, though, you've probably found a tank that will allow vallis to...

Again, thankyou for the compliments. I appreciate it. Hope a full-time job comes sooner rather than later, I'd love to work with this kind of scape again. Maybe a 55g or a 40g breeder. That would be sweet. Wanna see some red MADNESS. Check this out. That image was from my 1.4WPG 20g...

You are all so sweet and thank you for the warm welcome to UKAPS. :D I've been a member for a while ( since 2007), but with my other obligations, I could not post. I will make a concerted effort to post more, though I will admit, I am grossly out-of-date with most aspects of the hobby...

You are all too kind, but there are much better low-tech journals to read than mine. Mine would be full of broken rules and lack any technique or finess. I think I just get lucky or have a lot of patience. Or for once, there is something actually good about Miami water. I look forward to...

My favorite of the group. Very beautiful. Looks like a forest floor in the Pacific Northwest.

This was my favorite scape. One day, I'll try something similar on a larger scale, but I'll have to wait until I retire! :lol: The pruning regimen is not for the faint of heart! It took time to get the shapes I wanted. It's mostly stems. I'm surprised I got them to last that long...

Great start. The moss is fantastic. :) llj

I don't have a Walstad type tank, which typically has... soil substrate no or little filtration livestock is lightly stocked usually more lighting than I've got It is these types of tanks that generally come with less water changes, unless I have totally missed the idea behind a Walstad tank...

Beautiful tank. The Riccia looks so poofy. I love it. Congratulations on your placement. llj

Don't you love it when that happens? Sweet little tank, I like the java fern. I can not grow anything with the name Java in it. Everything else is okay, just nothing with Java in the name. :lol: I've got an 8g that's kind of like your tank but it's seemless and has 24W. It's empty now...

No, this is just excellent fish selection at play. No training at the RAF with George! Just rasboras being rasboras. One of the best schooling fish around. If you've got good numbers, all you have to do is just approach the tank, and they'll assume schooling formation. My harlequins do this...

It is a beautiful scape, Steven. The white sand is lovely with the flora of the scape. It looks very natural. Good luck.

Thanks everybody, I appreciate the comments and I'm glad you like it. It is what it is. I've never been particularly flashy and usually I'll opt for lower maintenance and lower budget in the end, though I think I may post my old Dutch-style nano, just to keep you guessing. Not with plants...

Hello, I haven't posted here for a while. I've been busy with my university position and singing. I still have the 20g, and the scape has again morphed into something that I can be happy with, especially with the lack maintenance that it requires. It really doesn't make any sense to make...

Re: Six years of 'scaping Yes. Still representing the low-light, no-CO2, no-ferts facet of the planted tank hobby over there. I'll post some tank pictures here, though. llj

Re: Six years of 'scaping This one is my favorite. Beautiful. :)
