Aquagreen (the end)

Re: Aquagreen (NEW VIDEO P21)

hi

with regards to the tmc grobeam unit.
whats your experience with them, are they worth the led power? if you know what i mean.
Also im having trouble finding out what kind of size the unit will fit, will it move down to fit a 40cm tank?

Rachel

p.s them gourami are STUNNING!

The Grobeams are great, the colour rendition is good, they grow plants and show colours up nicely.

One grobeam would work on a 40cm tank.

What sort of rock did you go with, it looks dark in the shots is it slate?

thank you, and the rock is mini landscape rock.
 
Re: Aquagreen (NEW VIDEO P21)

Re: Aquagreen (NEW VIDEO P21)

Awesome nature aquarium, just how I like them; although I'd be tempted to let it get a little more naturefied 😉

Cheers oddnoise, again you comment is much appreciated.

I'm loving this 1-2 grow moss, it really taking it's form now, i have struggled with weeping moss in the past, but this stuff seems good.

Re: Aquagreen (NEW VIDEO P21)

Again Ian, it's looking excellent.

I hope you don't mind but your tank has been a good source of inspiration for my one.
I'm trying Taxiphyllum Barbieri on the wood but interested to hear about your 1-2 Grow moss.

I'm just in the planting mode and will post pictures soon.
 
Re: Aquagreen (NEW VIDEO P21)

Thank you!

With most mosses you buy fresh in they will be grown emersed, the easy mosses like Java moss will take no problems (this is in my experience), the medium to harder mosses like Christmas, weeping etc etc, go through a slight transition. Making them go a little brown, they do recover but it takes time and sometimes they don't recover well.

again IME 1-2 Grow moss takes almost straight away and in this tank has looks really good. How i would expect it to look.
 
Re: Aquagreen (wine and scape)

Total relaxation.
The only thing missing from that photo is your feet up on that table!

Love the focal point of the open off centre space, no hard hitting centrepiece to draw the eye allows you then to look calmly and inquisitively around the scape. An ideal nature aquarium :clap:
