Re: Andyh's 190l Lounge tank (update14-2-11)
Cheers for all the positive comments guys! Its good to know there is people reading this
So Here we go, apologies but this is going to be photo heavy!
So this is what it looked like:
Then i pulled out most of the stuff on the right (ignore the random bit of wood and the bits floating)
And then this is the new look, shortly after completion.
I let the tank settle for 36hrs and then completed a massive overhaul/clean of the tank, both filters were stripped cleaned and set back up I then positioned the filter intakes and returns based on the new design. Yes i need to get rid of the god awful green eheim pipe. (broke my glass one a few weeks back)
I really love the view from the end, the grasses all sway in the flow.
This pic below shows a lot of the new plants, i have gone for a blend of grasses as i wanted a more open feel to the scape as the previous one felt over crowded. I have graded the grasses in size from small at the front to tallest at the back
See if you can spot all the plants, the new ones added are:
Eleocharis Parvula
Echinodorus Tenellus
Blyxa Japonica
Cryptocoryne crispatula var. balansae
Vesicularia ferriei, (Willow Moss)
Cryptocoryne Wendtii Brown
As always i cant wait for it to fill in a little more and get closer to what i had in my mind.
Thanks for looking
Andyh
