Just thought i'd share a few shots of my overgrown tank, which i stripped down, and rescaped for a new journal over the Easter weekend.

The tank is an Akva-Stabil Effect-line 720 litre, but more details will follow in the journal.

I did also remove a substantial amount of gravel, and believe it or not, there is 25kg of mini landscape rock in there too. :D

It took me about a day to strip all the pants out, seperating different stems etc into different garden tubs, and buckets. Then i removed some of the access gravel, changed the poly filters to clean up the tank. Also done a few scapes.

Next day, rescaped again, then started planting, cutting roots, the glosso hasn't been finished yet, will redo this when i get some free time.

This is original scape for the above pics, see, there were rocks.. :D

Hi,
Believe it or not, your tank looks bigger full of plants, than empty mate...

Cheers,

Lordy lordy! how many plants did you tear out?! It looks amazing regardless, I wish I had your touch.
 
I've not seen the new journal no, or at least I don't think I have.
 
Thank you, I'm really jealous of your tank TDI it looks great fun to scape.
 
Could somebody please tell me the name of the plant in the 5th picture down? Its the plants directly behind the tetra's/rock

Thanks in advance
