Hardscape for a new 60P scape.
Brazilian style scape using seriyu stone. Alot of the stems will be reused when I take down my current 90p scape but for the mean time, this tank is going through a dark start.
I've had much success with dark starts so it's now my go to when starting a new tank...
Hey everyone,
I'm about to start scaping a 60p. Before I get started I'm curious if the mat provided with this tank is up to the job as it's a few mm shorter than the tank footprint. I purchased the tank from a fellow aquascaper (eBay) who had already cut the mat.
Ada 60p footprint (60x30cm)...
Introduction:
This journal is about creating different scape concepts in 60x45x36 cm ADA60P tank.
After getting into the aquascaping side of this versatile hobby I have watched and sort of analysed hundreds, if not thousands, of pictures(and videos) of aquascapes. More than a few have stuck in...
A while back, my brand new ADA Cube Garden 60-P cracked on the base due to forgetting to place a soft surface underneath (a very expensive and painful lesson learnt). I have since replaced the tank but still have the old cracked 60-P. The crack runs parallel with the longest edge of tank, right...
This is extremely easy, looks on par with the ADA cabinets with a fraction of the cost. In my opinion, the wooden accents down the side of the cabinet makes it looks slightly better, but that is down to taste.

Hi everyone,
I just got back into aquascaping! The last time I had a planted tank George Farmer had a juwel rio, so it’s been a while. I thought I’d delve back in by setting up a 60P Iwagumi with a very minimal planting palette.
Would highly appreciate any and all advice on my latest hard...
Hello,
Here's my new hardscape. I'm looking for plant suggestions.
I'm pretty set on using rotala rotundofolia, Rotala H'ra in the background. With some Proserpinaca palustris in the middle to break the color with another tint. I might be missing some green though?
Otherwise, I'm stuck with...

Hey everyone, here is my new 60p I have just set up. I have always been inspired by the classic nature aquarium style and have been collecting materials for a concave layout for a few months now. Managed to get some good deals on second hand ADA equipment for almost the full setup too.

Hello All,
I have been away from the hobby for a number of years, after a moving house, as it just wasn’t suitable to set up my old tank, so reluctantly had to get rid of my old tank and all own old equipment.
Following a recent change in my personal life, I needed to do something that...
So I haven't done a whole lot of rock work in the past.
needless to say this stuff is a lot harder than it looks, and the amount of soil used to create the slopes is surprising to me as well, even though i tried to use lava rock as a filler.
So this is what I got done today:
This being my...
Beginner aquascaper here and I'm looking for any advice tips on starting my first scape. Here in Georgia we have a lot of sloped hills with this plant called kudzu with exposed rock and that's what I'm gaining some of my inspirations from. I have an idea of what I want but not on how to exactly...
6 Months after taking down my first scape we're finally settled in our new house, so it's time to start again. This is a bit of a blank canvas, built with only a vague idea in my head, we'll see how we go with it!

I have only recently discovered Aquascaping so this is my first tank, although my parents did keep fish some ~15 years ago. I started this tank a few months ago, but spent along time trying to decide on the hardscape.
Equipment I current have is underlined, everything else is still to buy...
Hi all,
I'm looking for a bit of advice concerning my ada 60-p. Currently I have a mountain scape using seiryu stones with a lush carpet of micranthemum monte carlo. The micranthemum covers the entire bottom of the tank but my scape is lacking a bit of height. So, I decided to purchase some...
After my last scape "3 stones" i am now starting a new thread for my next scape.
It is made with kei stones and spider wood.
I wanted a v shape layout this time and also wanted to include white sand in front.
I am at this moment in de hardscape stage and refining the layout.
I will post...
Hi Guys,
I've got two TMC MiniLED 400 tiles mounted about 2 inches above the surface of my ADA 60P.
I'm running a high-tech setup with pressurised Co2, dosing EI ferts etc. I've got good circulation and the drop checker is a lime green - yellow (no fauna yet).
I seem to get reasonable results...
As some of you may be aware, I posted a few threads on here when I was struggling with my first scape. It was an interpet fish box with an amalgamation of all sorts of remedies to try and get it something like some of the stunning scapes featured on here. I received some invaluable advice from...
