phoenix44 Posted April 22, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2011 You've got a big empty space in the middle that could house an awesome plant! Looks awesome as always Space in the middle is not something I am used to, but if I have my way the base of those pieces of wood will be housed with Java Fern.

phoenix44 Posted April 22, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2011 Going to go pick me some more cardinals now. 100 in total will do. Going to be an expensive day - Shopping list so far contains: Cardinals JBL Balls Root Tabs Filter Wool Maybe more cories if they have brochis or sterbais Java Fern (normal or phillipine) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waterlogged Posted April 22, 2011 Report Share Posted April 22, 2011 got a question. when you first set up the tank did you buy enough plants to stock it up or did you wait for them to grow in? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phoenix44 Posted April 23, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2011 I bought enough plants to stock it, but bearing in mind that the stems would grow like mad. Got some more cardinals today, so I think that's a schoal of about 70-80 in there now. I'll refert the gravel tonight with the JBL balls and the root tabs. My crypts are flourishing. I shall update with a pic (or more) tonight. I wish I could get marble hatchets, but they will jump out. Also, still need Java fern. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phoenix44 Posted April 23, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2011 DSLR Pics! FTS- Some of the cardinals - (warmer pic) Some more- (cooler pic) Coming up for mossie larvae - (That is Ech. bartii if any one is wondering). Now I will just have to wait till the plants grow and I can hide all the equipment again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Posted April 23, 2011 Report Share Posted April 23, 2011 It looks err... interesting? I miss the big swordplant and how you had the tank jam-packed with plants :tears: It looked so cool. The 'pathway' thing looks funny. Although that is just my silly opinion :facepalm: As long as you're happy with it that's the main thing BTW, I like that particular moss you have on the driftwood Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phoenix44 Posted April 23, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2011 I'm not totally happy with it. At the moment it looks too generic for my liking. Any one can look on the internet and copy a certain style or someone's tank. I look at all those tanks on the internet and they all look exactly the same and it's so boring. So the challenge I now have is to take this orchestrated look and make it my own. Haven't thought of how exactly I am going to do that just yet, but I'm sure ill do something with it.
