Scape corner

@Siege there just perfect mate thank you for your help not just with the plants and gravel the moss your experience the advice you willing give for free you are a star a real star you guys always look after me order 26 plants got 29 what can I say apart from.having trouble to fit them in but I'm pretty sure il manage it
 
Nice scape, love the detail in the sand and gravel work. Looks so natural how you've mixed in the bigger pieces towards the wood and rocks.
Creates a great sense of scale.
 
Thank @Steve Buce started from scratch so need the filter to mature again as I had been getting loads of diatomes with this tank ever since i got it so low light and nice and slow this time think it needs a fern in the middle of the wood to give it some body maybe a trident or java need to have a look
 
I love this. You’d never think that this isn’t one piece of wood. It look so natural.
What combination of sand did you go with in the end. Looks great
 
@howanic I went with Hugo Kamishi Natural Fine Gravel and the Rio xingu peddles then a sprinkle of the la plate on top just to.lighten it a very little think it needs a bit more of the gravel towards the base of the wood to bring it together right in the front centre of the wood and a trident or java fern in the centre of the wood I'm.not sure about the tripartita might try it again when I do water change later it floated when planted so left.it out for now
