    Critique my hardscape Critique away.

    This will be a low energy, slow growth tank, lots of buce, anubias, bolbitis, Microsorum pteropus 'Trident'/‘narrow’ With lots of crypts in the mid ground and Ceratopteris Thalicrodes and bacopa caroliniana in the back ground. Maybe some vals I’ve gone for a harsher approach with the...

    Always fine it difficult how to end a triangle formation! Never really know how to gradually end it! I’ve got some rotala h’ra for the back, Anubis’s and buce for the rocks and some h’pinnatifida to put here and there. I have son in-vitro crypts but fear they may grow too big, my wenditti...

    UK wood in aquariums

    I used heather in my 15L shrimp tank, it had been fired, left out for months, then I stripped as much bark off as possible and kiln dried it! Looked brilliant for 6 months, the issue is it starts to break down, or at least it did in my tank! Causing issues with water quality and makes a mess...

    Ive continues this in my journal but I’ll just put this here! That square rock was no good for anything! So it got the hammer and will be used for bits in the sand, the heathers gone into soak again as I want it to soaks as long as possible! It’s also got my sons tarantulas heat Mat under it! So...

    Thanks for the feed back Keith! I’ve moved things about a bit, the square piece has been moved to be part of the wall with less distraction, if it’s still a distracting I’ll smash it up and use it to scatter in the sand, The other small piece which was in the foreground, is now part of the...

    Heather?!?

    I’ve seen a few of you have used fired/dead heather in their scapes! Just wondering: what, if any effects on water does it have? How long did it last? How did you prep it ? Did it work out ok? Thanks in advance! Thom Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    British tree roots ok?

    Found a dead ash tree while walking the dogs, trees come down but roots are still there and sit in the river! because they already submerged in the river, would these be ok for a scape? Would they take much soaking? If they’ve been soaking for the last 20 or so years? Sent from my iPhone...

    Nature aquascape "Gora"

    Love the height of this! Have you used anything to keep its structure? Or are the rocks just held with the substrate? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
