Hi Alex, I agree with A aurel 🙂 Wonderful scapes Truly stunning photos

 

[alex08]

Thank you all! 😀

About the hardscape, Richard, i had something else in mind at first, but didn't have the proper "tools". 🙁
Some big changes are coming to this setup, stay tuned.

As far as i know Dennerle has them in the collection, but is out of stock. According the LFS i asked, it will be available again next year.

The only odd thing is Dennerle named this plant "Water Mimosa" in their database whish it isn't. I'll get an e-mail as soon as it is available again.

Than it can be found in thier database with art. number 720

I'm glad you too like it.

Yes, i was happy about it.
I'll try to improve it, we'll see how it goes.

Two of my favorites : Aeschynomene fluitans in the front, Phyllanthus fluitans in the back

Lovely tank, im going to get some of that Aeschynomene fluitans for mine I think. I really like it 🙂

 

[Inked_aqua]

Amazing scape, i'm a sucker for floating plants and that Aeschynomene fluitans is stunning

 

[Tankless]

Dare say Alex has enough light to floodlight Wembley Stadium.
So the floaters help on the diffusion front!
I think those floaters are tethered by string so they will not be stationary...which helps produce a dapple effect!
Which helps shift the lighting rays about so less algae problems!
Lovely Aquascaping!
Cheers

He keeps the floating plants in place via string?

 

[G H Nelson]

Aeschynomene fluitans....because this is a floating raft, if you have high flow it might need to tethered or it will be pushed to one end of the aquarium!
I don't think Alex did this though!

 

[NatalieHurrell]

Oh my goodness. Totally amazing!

Inspiring

I hope one day I have the knowledge to have a tank this nice and spotlessly clean! Beautiful
