Thanks pal. As everyone knows my relationship with this tank is somewhat beginning to come to an end (she wants what I can't give her) so I thought I would make some effort today, give her a nice close trim ;) and do a nice big water change and just have a little 1 2 1 time whilst the Mrs was out at work and try and salvaged a broken affair ;) I realised I have a huge amount if weeping moss and Riccia it's unreal. I sent out my next lot to Matt, a member on ukaps so he should be happy with the quantity! The new scape in the far right tank is growing very nicely. Can Anyone tell me why my peacock moss has very very faint brown strands in places? The overall moss looks great and I'm actually beginning to love peacock more than weeping due to it's growth formation but there are some random brown legs attached..'

I received all this from Ian holdich today.. Words can't express how thankful I am considering what I paid.. This has truly spurred me on to create 3 different scapes across the tanks.. Here are some photos of what arrived..

I'll work on a design and get it up asap.

OK here it is... Complete change to the far right tank.. I thought why not mix things up as suggested.. So here it is. Ignore the big dragon stone rock its merely weighing down the wood.. I'll remove it next week :)

really like these jack

these tanks made me want a nano

I can understand wanting to change up but I do think these are great as they are

Yeah completely understand. I just think it's time for a change. I'm liking the jungle an awful lot so I'm thinking 3 jungles now to try and experiment with :)

Did u wrap your riccia mesh with cotton or anything? Can't really see anything holding the green mesh on the the metal grid! I'm trying to find a better way of doing it as it drives me nuts!!!

Yeah I laid down some netting and tied it to the mesh with fishing line :) make sure they are compact and loose :)

Nice one Jack i like it very wild and free spirit looking and entirely different!Like you mentioned a while ago getting 3nano's to go together and look like a matching set using Iwagumi style is a toughie as there was allways one or a piece of one that was not to your personal perfectionist taste!But with the jungle set up its definately a bit more flexable and sounds like you are enjoying it so thats the main thing.Cheers mark

Cheers mark yes I agree, jungle is more flexible, I will give this a shot and see where it takes me. I have a mate dropping of some bright blue neon endlers this morning so they will be my first batch of fish for months! Photos will be up tonight :)

Cheers! Jack :)
 
You know I'm unsure. I think it could be w couple.. Maybe you can help? Its the same stem plants I have in the far right hand tank.. Any ideas?

Cheers! Jack :)
 
Not sure mate i had a look at the video you posted mid Jan if it's what i saw there looks like some kind of Rotala.Put up a good shot of it someone will know what it is.Cheers mark
