    Aquascaping tips for a tall tank

    Sorry George, it won't let me post the exact one. It's shown on the medium tank gallery (100l-200l) and is the second o the 180l on view. His looks to be more of a lower light set up with dark mixed gravel, anubias, monosolenium and lots of duckweed subduing the light. Flora It's not an...

    Aquascaping tips for a tall tank

    Well after a bit of thought, I decided to take some of your advice to copy an existing design. I think I'd like to go for an off centre 'mound' sort of like this one from Oliver Knott. My tank isn't a bowfront, but I hope that the design will translate well. I hope that I can use my existing...
