    I miss aquascaping!!

    Now I'm at uni, I miss having tanks to fiddle with - couldn't even bring my trees with me! Just got my Ranchu in a 60P and Puffer in the Roma 125 back home now, and neither are plant friendly :roll: May have to have a go at jazzing up the 60P when I get home... :wink: Sorry, random post -...

    English-speaking Asian forums?

    I know about the Malaysian Aquascaping Club but are there other good, busy english-speaking aquascaping forums out there? Or even European? Tom

    Optimising cascade-style shop plant tanks....

    Hi, I might have to overhaul a plant system in a shop. It's probably a cascade-style system as far as I know, with several tiers flowing down and then overflowing into a sump. Also at a guess, the lighting would be a 150w halide suspended overhead. When the water enters the sump it goes through...

    Good links for ADA "Mini" series tanks?

    Has anyone got any good links to any pics of the "Mini" series ADA tanks. They seem much harder to come by than say the 60 or 120cm scapes! Maybe some of the submerged Wabi Kusa tanks? I've seen the fairly naff tourist shots with reflections from the Gallery, but haven't seen many/any of Amano's...

    Just got back from TGM...

    ... with this - apologies for the picture quality Bit of a trek from Ipswich, but worth it I think. After braving the hard sales pitches, came away with my Mini M, Amazonia powder, Power Sand (scoop from a large bag), Forest Sand, Brighty K, Step 1 and 4DKH. I also picked up a few nice stones...

    Do!Aqua Plant Glass Oval examples?

    I've been looking for some examples of what people have done with these, but can't find any info. Anyone got any good links? I know you can keep Wabi Kusa in them, but I just thought there might be some examples floating around? Tom

    Setting up a tank...

    ...for Ipswich School today! Just thought I'd let you know :roll: Using 12x wendtii brown, 12x wendtii green, 6 beckettii, 12 Swords, and some dwarf sag in a Rio 180, low tech style :D Oh, and I love wholesale! :thumbup: Anyway, that's my day. What's everyone else doing? :lol: Tom

    In need of quick plant storage help!

    Hi guys, I was just wondering the best way to store some plants (Crypts and Ech's) for 4 or so days? I bought £100 worth of plants from wholesale for a client, and now I'm not going to be able to set up their tank for a few days longer than I hoped. How should I store them? Should I just...

    50% w/c daily?

    Would it hurt? 50% in my tank is less than a bucket, so takes less than 5 minutes. I've had a bit of algae since FoF too due to no dosing ( :roll: ), and want to get it back on track. But is there any downside to a 50% change at the end of every day, and then dosing in the morning (trying TPN...

    Which has more impact?

    For me I think it's a combination of 2 and 3. I like the artistic and photographic sides, but also like to see how the hardscape came together. Full journals for me ruin the suspense - there's not as much "wow" when the aquascaper finally reveals their last photos, as you've already seen similar...

    ADA Aquatic Plant Layout Contest 2008

    Anyone have any information on how to enter, or if there's any information anywhere? I've entered one tank through the AGA form (just to say I've done it, not that I'm going to be competitive) but I can't find any other entry forms or anything anywhere else. Is it on the ADA site or something? Tom

    Problems logging in

    When I try to log in, it always cancels the first login, saying "error on page", and then I have to do it again. On the second try it always lets me on though. Also, when I click the "keep me signed in" button, it never works. Is this a problem with my laptop or something else? I have had it...

    Who's Entered AGA?

    Well the AGA results are expected on the 1st Nov, so I just wondered who out of us has entered? ( I can't wait 2 days to find out! :roll: ) Tom

    ADA - UK vs. US pricing

    I was looking at Jeff Senske's ADG site yesterday, and noticed that prices are stupidly cheap compared to the UK. Just for example, say some aquasoil costs like £26 here, on there it would be $26. Apply the exchange rate and its almost half the price! is that just because they import more of it...
