Thanks, I appreciate it! I will make some slight changes in the near future, will keep the thread updated, of course.Love your mosses mate, keep up the good work!
That's a lovely and quite different layout. I love how the moss growth softens the big block of red. It really works, great stuff
Thanks both of You! Indeed ,in the beginning everyone said that is a landscape from the planet Mars... But by time the whole scape and especially the mosses grow like mad, unfortunately the parvula what was planted, completely disappeared... but I will make another try soon with acicularis also. To soften the transition in the background between valisneria and the rocks.Yeah, looking great now the moss has grown in. Have to admit I wasn't hugely keen on the lava rock to begin with, but the contrast works really nicely now.
Thanks Pedro and all of, who commented before, all were a massive compliment for me! Such an amazing thing, that you appreciate my work and effort, for making this rock more "loveable" For this kind of attitude it worth the hard work.Stevo,
I personally don't appreciate this kind of rock, but what you did with them and the colors that your aquarium have are just beautiful.
Love it.
Pedro.
Love the rock work xtevo, what do you have in mind for planting this time round ? Look forward to following version 2 mate
Looks almost like a reef tank .
I think it gets a bit "heavy" and compact with these big stones. I would probably want to open it up a bit more.
Will watch this.

Hehe, indeed. Thats interesting, a friend of mine also said the same, that this tank is a bit crowded, don't have much space for fish/shrimps. I said the same to him, that after planting, You won't feel that.
Maybe you are right. I would still create some kind of "hole" in the wall, though. But I am ready to be proven wrong .

Like the new layout, looks much better than the old imo. Only thing I would suggest is breaking down the larger rocks to makes lots of smaller then build it up with those. The reason I suggest this is that there isn't much of a sense of perspective in the scape for me.... the large rocks do look overly large in the tank so the sense of scale is a bit off imo.
I like the new layout as well (liked the old one as well). It would scare the bejesus out of me putting all that rock into my tank without anything to cushion it though!
I think once it is partially covered with mosses etc it will be really broken up. Java moss looks abit random and wild I feel for a tank like this. How about coral pelia? Spikey moss would look nice too as would christmas moss. Grass at the back will look great.
