Faran Posted June 9, 2006 Report Share Posted June 9, 2006 Nice work, mate. Great example of a planted tank for NZers. Someone came by here the other day raving about your setups and now I see why! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plantman Posted June 21, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 21, 2006 HI All thanks for the comments. it does take time and energy. any comment about the gravel level is too high, too much of fertiliser all over the place, or some constructive comments. have anyone tried this before? cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishboi Posted July 18, 2006 Report Share Posted July 18, 2006 hay any updates on how the tank is doing? some pics would be great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plantman Posted July 19, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 19, 2006 thanks for asking. nothing unusal, nothing the bristlenose and water changes could not handle in keeping the algae downm i just did my second pruning. it does no look good now but once the growth cycle take over, it will look natural again.

Aaron_fish_mad_guy Posted December 13, 2006 Report Share Posted December 13, 2006 Whats the plant 4/5 along the tank at the back shaped like a series of umbrellas joined end to end... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plantman Posted December 13, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2006 Whats the plant 4/5 along the tank at the back shaped like a series of umbrellas joined end to end... does are the anbulia (upper portion between the woods). commonly found in most lfs. they are easy to grow but if not taken care of, can also have problems with algae.
