Hi all,
Long time lurker here but only getting around to posting now.
As mentioned in my Introduction thread, I have a tank around two years, zero scaping skills with some plants and ornaments plonked in. Over this time I have seen many outstanding aquascapes and I've been drawn to one particular type of design that resonates with me in that a) I really like and b) I think it is something that is achievable given my inexperienced hands
Attached a several pictures I have come across google and forums etc. which embody the key principles.Full credit to all the creators. I am not looking to recreate any one in particular but they give a good flavour of what I have in mind
1) the design
2) what I need to buy in order to achieve

- Front third and right third of tank is sand
- A layer of stones creates a boundary between the sand and
- The back corner which is a built up of substrate
- Wood perched on the mound of substrate
- Area around the wood is planted
- Tank is 54l - 2ft by 1ft by 1ft
- Tank has lid with Aqual Leddy 10w plant light
- Ideally low tech for plant maintenance
- Water is soft
- Fish Stock to be determined but something like corys, neon tetras and maybe apisto/rams/dwarf goruami
