Hi folks following on from buceps bluff I've knocked up another little scape in my 30x20x20 clearseal tank, only expense was £4 on the two pieces of redmoor root, everything else was at hand from previous scapes.
Testing the wood position

Florabase brown added (accidental purchase thought it was black but kept it anyway)

Anchor moss tied with fishing line, small anubias ( donated by my lfs :)) superglued on

Hairgrass mini, hydro japan, micranthemum Monte Carlo and rotala all washed off and replanted from previous scape, plus some Monte Carlo I kept in a propagator, bit yellow due to lack of nutrients should bounce back.

Hardware for those interested
Azoo hob filter, boyu t5 luminare, pump from an old fluval spec to aid flow and push yeast based co2 around the tank. Equipment is certainly nothing pretty but should keep this ticking over for the couple of months it'll run before we move.
As always thanks for looking and apologies for the very blue looking iPhone pics :)
 
Looks lovely as always tim, the colours are strange in the pics though...

love the anubias petite fella, what happened to all your buces though?
reckon the hydro japan will fill that tank in a week :lol:
Couple of buces on the branches sulking, couple in an emersed tank and I've moved a couple into the 60x20x20 as for the hydro the scissors are at the ready :)
Tim is the new king of the nano tank!

Reminds me of one of Norbat Sabats scapes.
shucks mate high praise indeed :oops: Total rip of of norbert sabat's ghosts ;) Thank you Ian, good to see you still around the place.
haha, thought the same, its a tiny Ghosts.
I should call it Casper :lol:
 
Few pics from this one nothing happening fast
Anubias are putting out new leaves

Added some moss covered slate pieces loosely tied on some Monte Carlo, should hide the stump of the wood nicely

Fts Monte Carlo is growing up not sideways so I've swapped the filter to a cristalprofi 700 hopefully get more flow round the substrate level

Cheers for looking.
 
nice... and wallet friendly lol !!
Thanks Robert, it's unfortunately suffered badly during a house move aquasoil all over the gravel, rocks displaced, plants uprooted :( I'm going to have to decide if I can fit it in somewhere in the new place in which case it'll be a minor rescape using the same wood but probably fully planted.
