It's been too long since my last journal! Better late than never, I guess...
Here's my current nano, an Orca MT30. It's a mish-mash of plants that have been donated or left over from other 'scapes. I've just let it grow really. No real design. I quite like the wild look and it's a change from my usual 'clean' style.
It's gone through a few minor changes since it's creation for a PFK feature. See here - viewtopic.php?f=49&t=5632
I'll be re-doing it from scratch fairly soon, when I can find the time! I have some exciting plans for the new layout too.
I look forward to sharing the journey with you all!
