Hello everybody I'm new here.
I'm a long time cichlid keeper with a shed full of many large tanks a big boisterous inhabitants. Sadly over the last couple years the last tank closed due to other commitments.
Recently I have decided to get a another fish tank up and running and looked toward a nano cube with a betta, nice and simple...... Until I came across this stunning site and of course now have to have a stab at this planted aquascape lark!
I have both tropica compound substrate and ADA aquasoil ready along with a selection of plants on the way from TGM. I have been trawling the galleries for days for inspiration but then I remembered some bogwood I had kicking around from some old setups and wondered if it would work so here is my first question....
This piece is large it virtually spans top to bottom and side to side of my 40cm cube.
What are the chances of successfully making an appealing scape based on a single large centrepiece like this ? Or should I just forget it? any tips or links to similar scapes you may know of much appreciated.
Cheers
Andrew
