It is 6 mm thick, usual thickness for a 60P

Hi Mark, Looking Good

 

[Sarpijk]

Nice! The rock looks like black lava rock. What plants do you have in mind?

Nice! The rock looks like black lava rock. What plants do you have in mind?

Almost 100% that the following plants will be the final choice:

• Tropica Staurogyne Repens TC
• Green Aqua Eleocharis acicularis
• Dennerle Anubias nana Bonsai
• Green Aqua Cryptocoryne Petchii pink
• Tropica Hemianthus Micranthemoides
• Tropica Rotala rotundifolia
• Tropica Rotala sp. green
• Dennerle Ammannia praetermissa
• Riccardia chamedryfolia

A little explanation: Here in Hungary there is a shop called Green Aqua, and they developed some plants in TC, so that's not a new plant supplier, "just" a shop.

Can't wait to see how this turns out.....

I made some minor changes on the sand. Here is the result:

Nice rock work, I'd like to see the sand area with less of the small rocks, look forward to seeing this planted up.

 

[The_Iceman]

Wow... this is different!

Looking forward to the planted, grown in result.

Cheers,

I wonder where will you put your all your plants? Can you take a picture of side view - so we can see the profile of your hardscape, please?
Very bold and impressive hardscape, btw!

I've made some quick shots with my phone:

I've finished with the planting. I have to admit, this was the first time I worked with plants by Dennerle and I am amazed. They have a really good quality, and you get a great amount of plants with one pot. I would recommend them!

And the product:
