I thought i would create a thread to post your finished aquascapes, as IMO seeing them collectively rather than in individual topics is better. If you do post your tank, then feel free to provide a link to the original topic if you have one, so that any questions can be discussed, to help keep this thread clean, no comments or questions please just your tank & specs!

You can copy this to use as a layout


Code:
  [b]picture -[/b] 

    [b]Name of Scape[/b] -
    [b]Tank[/b] - volume & size
    [b]Filtration & powerheads[/b] - Type, model & l/ph

    [b]Substrate[/b] - Type, depth, quantity used
    [b]Fertilisation[/b] - technique used (Estimative Index/ PMDD etc), quanities dosed & when
    [b]Water chemistry[/b] - pH, KH, GH, NO3, PO4, temperature (if you test)

    [b]Fauna [/b] -
    [b]Flora[/b] - preferably scientific names
    [b]Hardscape[/b]

I (or someone else) can create another topic for discussions, if need be.

thanks

Sorry for cluttering your thread Aaron :( i get what your going for now
Any chance a mod could delete this for me?
 
Good idea Aarron, I'd like to see links to the corresponding journal though so that comment can be passed in the appropriate place.
