    Just entered IAPLC 2012

    I was in 2 minds whether to enter, but thought best keep the numbers up. I don't feel it's strong enough to compete, but lets see the outcome... Anyone else entering?

    Not much time for aquascaping

    Hi everyone. Sorry for not being around much, but with an operation looming, and having to work 7 days a week whilst ill, i've not got a great deal of enthusiasm for anything at the moment. Thanks to my friends who have been supportive recently. Hopefully, in 4 or 5 weeks, i'll be plaguing you...

    Keep your surface clean with Gouramis

    I've said a few times about how I keep my surface clear from 'surface scum' One of the best additions I've had is the good old Gourami. I've had a few different types, and they all do the same job. These ones are discreet and don't clutter up the over all look. I think, because they are...

    Tropica Interzoo layout.

    I'm aloud to show the hardscape for this tank which is in a 160 x 45 x 45. I cant show the planted version as it contains some new 1-2 grow plants. It was a fun 2 days at Tropica headquarters and me and the lads had a great time. I just thought i'd share my hardscape layout. The stone is...

    Just by luck, i got this...

    Yesterday saw me smashing up stone to get some nice pieces. I took a diamond blade to one of my bigger bits and went all the way around. I then hit it with a hammer and bolster. I got some really special bits, but what was left on the main piece was just lovely. I plan now, to cut this off...

    lower water levels for comps? legal?

    My question is, does lowering the water level for images for competitions such as IAPLC breach rules? This image, is a snap of my tank with the water about 15cm lower. It suits the tank much better, but does it comply to rules? I believe, reflections can play a huge role in a final image.
