Hannover is a public event; the aquarium part however is just a small part of the total animal event.

Tanks look great, whats that main plant on the winning tank all over the wood?

About Dan's scape, it looks really good, a lot of detail on it, and it shows a great eye for placement.

I specially like the use of the undulating wood.

The winning scape is outstanding.

Paulo, the plant looks Micranthemoides, on top of the wood.

Thanks, guys.

HC. Pretty neat idea. It was flawless in the flesh too, not a spot of algae or sign of deficiency.

About Dan's scape...

It was a joint effort!

I've created a new thread here, including images of the Top 10 and more from our tank -

Sorry George.. Should have written Dan and George's scape. 🙂

I really liked it, and the choice of wood and plants was very good.

Thanks George, will the HC last long term in that position? very interesting idea indeed.

Sorry I missed this mate.

I would say the HC will last for as long as the 'scaper maintains it appropriately... Just like growing any HC carpet really.

Nice one! Dan and I don't even look that stressed - even though the plants were 2hrs late!
