After I have got my nursery tank scaped I am thinking of rescaping my 125Ltr which is currently 'Celestial Glade'.
Not a costly change as I will use virtually everything (plants, wood, substrate etc) but quite a different look hopefully.
Here is how 'Celestial Glade looks at the moment to get an idea of the shape of the plants and wood (which is totally hidden here. lol:
As you can see this is getting quite hard to maintain as it 'thickens'. I aim to use all the current plants but thin them out substantially. All the Crypts, Java Fern and Anubias will go into the new tank, some of the needle into the nursery, some into the new 125 scape and the rest will be up for sale on here.
This is what I am thinking of:
The wood is the actual wood I currently have, the left piece turned around, the right piece propped on the left piece to gain some height. The pipes and diffuser will move to the left. The Koralia to the right mirroring their current positions
Lightest green = Anubias, mid green is Java Fern, Dark Green is needles (They will grow to the left with the flow from the Koralia.)
Burgundy are smaller Crypts (Wendtii Brown/Green/Tropica, Parva
Blue would be the medium Crypts (Becketti, Wilisii) with the larger Crypts (Undulata) at the back.
I think I will probably scrape the sand off the top of the Tropica and then top it with some light coloured small gravel.
Any opinions?
