    Deep tank rescape?

    My current scape has had a shelf in it all along. (Not a recent picture, and tank only half filled.) I liked the challenge of building it, it allowed me to raise some of the plants nearer to the surface for more light, and I rationalised that the space underneath would be a sanctuary for shy...

    Mesh for slope scaping

    As usual I'm trying to think latterally and come up with an alternative mesh for supporting a slope. I've seen a few mentions of Bonsai mesh, but I've only seen it for sale in small pieces. And ideally I'd like some way to have some of my substrate (Adakama) visible on top. Any suggestions?

The tank is 110cm wide, 70cm high, and 35cm front to back, with two large pieces of bogwood giving a sort of U-shape when looking at the front.

    Caves and cleaning.

    I want to have a large cave at one end of my 275L tank. The idea is to provide somewhere for semi nocturnal fish to hide, but have the glass of the tank provide the main walls of the cave, so the fish can hide, but still be seen. (It makes sense in my head :crazy: ) The plan is to use a roofing...

    Large fake rocks

    Are there any companies that make decent sized fake rocks? (I'm after something 12"-18" long.) Everything I've found is either tiny, or looks cheap and tacky, or really expensive. The one exception is Universal Rocks in Australia, and I can't find a UK supplier.
