So last weekend after 1 month and half in the UK, I decided to take the plunge, with the limited amount of electricity I have in the place (it's a static caravan). I had originally decided to go pumpless and lightless, having a good spot in the front of the caravan with sunlight and all that.
I also had planned to do a full makeover of my godfather's fish tank as it was looking rather miff and sad.
So I ordered from Aquatic Gardens the following:
This is the old man's fish tank, my godmother said we should have taken a photo of it before and one after and naturally I agreed so sadly no before photos to compare to the new scape.
Then I got home just after 9pm last night after we had dinner and a drink to toast the newly scaped tank.
Then I quickly put together my tank, which wasn't the best idea doing it so late at night and being quite tired from working in the kitchen all morning then scaping all afternoon.
So here what the tank looks like after a few adjustments, I'm happy with it. I have quite a lot of baby ferns from the rescape and a few anubias as well to glue to the wood, when I do actually go and buy the superglue for it.
Bucephalandra Biblis, omg I'm in love with it!
Tripartita at the back of the tank behind the rocks.
There was more than enough stems to share between the two tanks (mine being much smaller so I didn't need that much anyway).

So I ordered from Aquatic Gardens the following:
- Bacopa Caroliniana
- Bacopa Australis
- Ludwigia Arctuata
- Hydrocotyle Tripartita Japan
- Bucephalandra Biblis
- Hugo Kamishi Natural Fine Gravel 15kg (to share between me and my godfather)
- Mini Landscape Seiryu Rocks (ordered 5kg)
