nelson's nano 2.......rescaped.

Re: nelson's nano 2

For me it has to be the second to last scape. I find the "mountains" on the right on the last one a bit uniform. If HC is not an option how about hair grass? My boy shay's was pretty impressive with grass alone.

Best wishes, T

well thanks T.now you've got me thinking again :twisted: :lol: .
the tank is only 10 inches high so think hairgrass will get too tall.
 
Re: nelson's nano 2

better or worse :?: .

Re: nelson's nano 2

I like it ! That back right corner seems to trail off into the distance now :) I think planting might be difficult though, it may ruin the scale of things? I hope that's not the case :)

yeah,think glosso will be too big.was considering giving HC one last try,again :lol: .
Paulo has just suggested a moss carpet on LFKC :idea: .
 
Re: nelson's nano 2

looks great. nice to see something different :thumbup:

i would be also temped by a moss carpet. if not i would put a little in the cracks at the bases of the stones, like the one right in the centre. it should creep up the rock and look really natural :D

look foward to the updates.
 
Re: nelson's nano 2

Nelson

That looks cool!

My vote is for HC, as the scale of the plant would work with the scape.

Otherwise something with fine or delicate leaves would work too.
 
Re: nelson's nano 2

cheers again everyone :D .
have seen that tank George.just want to do forground plants/plant.thanks though ;) .
thinking of using Paulo's suggestion of a fissidens carpet.with a little bit in some cracks like Sam said.
 
Re: nelson's nano 2

well i just couldn't help myself.my brain told me fissidens carpet but my itchy fingers told me HC.couldn't wait to sort the fissidens.
now its done not really happy with it :( .reckon HC is too big.i realise submersed growth will have smaller leaves but still not sure about it.don't even know why i'm talking about submersed growth since i've never managed to grow it before :lol: .
think it will shortly be fissidens.see you soon Paulo ;) :lol: .

Re: nelson's nano 2

Like I said Neil, bring the mesh cut to size and I will fill it with a nice cover of fissidens, then give it a couple of months and you will be amazed how good it looks, plus you only have to trim it once every 6 months!!
 
Re: nelson's nano 2

Also if you want something a bit taller to go between the rocks I can give you some flame moss?
