The illuminated background is unusual, like an advertising billboard.

Nice rock work.
I like the background too. Is that something that you made yourself or a commercial product?

 

[Ed Wiser]

Looks like a ADA light screen.

Yeah it looks a bit artificial without the primary light - but when it all comes together it’s absolutely amazing, especially for photography

wow great looking layout and agree that background looks great interested to see when planted

Here’s the previous scape I did with it:

That’s stunning. I see what you mean about enhancing the photography. Now I want one too!

Nice scape and that ada light is awesome, unfortunately can't buy it with this outrageous price tag

Wait, maybe if I ask my wife...haha no way

Rule number one of aquascaping:
Never tell your significant other how much you spent on the hobby

 

[Ed Wiser]

The trick is getting your wife to like the aquarium.
Once you do that the pocket book will open My wife likes nice things in her home and many of. The cheap equipment is not allowed in HER house.

Equipment is one thing, but at some point you find yourself explaining why investing in stones sticks and dirt is worth hundreds of €

 

[CooKieS]

My significant other always tell me how bad my aquascape looks...that keeps pushing me.

 

[keano]

you just need to sell her the idea that its making 'her' home look nicer and more homely

Well, if that isn’t the perfect motivation for investing in nicer equipment I don’t know what is

that lightscreen thing is amazing!
