Tropica Aquacube, the forgotten crystal gem from Tropica

Thanks for your words guys, I realized I wasn’t tired by the hobby itself but by some ppl in the hobby , should I stop for this? Well maybe not, let’s continue…
Exactly, why let a few folk ruin something that gives you joy, whatever that is. Especially something you have an obvious talent for ;)
 
I'm often too afraid of what people think of me and my work, but I've decided to put that to one side and continue to enjoy this hobby as long as it's financially possible.
Happy to see you continue. You are one of the most talented aquascapers ever. It isn't easy keeping plants in the great condition you manage for prolonged periods of time. Don't let people ever influence what you like and enjoy doing.
 
Ofc you guys have always been nice and full of knowledge! Always a pleasure to come here :) unfortunately the aquascaping scene in France is worse and worse…
 
Anyway, let’s continue this journal, to be honest I dismantled this tank last weekend because I needed more space for my new neocaridina shrimps (green hulk).

The orange sunburst juveniles were totally bad looking, like basically low grade orange and yellow shrimps, no koi pattern at all, so I decided to sell them, this strain, originally from Taiwan, is not stable and still needs a lot of work unfortunately.

I replaced them with another novelty : green hulk , which really is amazing and my juveniles are already nicely colored.

Here’s one of the last shot of the Tropica Aquacube, I’m getting some staghorn on some Crepidomanes and bolbitis , I think it was about time to add K fertilizer:

And the green hulk in their previous holding tank:

If you’re happy, I’m happy @CooKieS

Also, I have always liked your scapes, I just don’t always comment 👍

très bien
 
Oh wow, how do I get these cool shrimp in the UK? At this point I dont want them I need them. Glad you kept on with the hobby
Thanks, they come from Taiwan like the koi sunburst, found them in a fish/shrimp specialist shop here in France , I bet they can be shipped to UK too to some reseller?
 
The tank on it's own is a work of art, looks extra awesome planted up! The wood is beautiful
