I am on a new quest. Thanks for the idea. Do you mind if I steal (eehmm, I mean borrow) it?

Oh wow, that is really unique I love seeing tanks that "break the mold," so to speak. Looking forward to updates!

What a great idea. Is the "tree" a single piece or did you make it out of several smaller pieces?

What can I say? Great Job!
Where do you get the materials from (rocks and wood?)

Hi Filipe,

I am becoming a fan of your scapes. I see my country name on the 'tree top'.

Thanks for all comments

Regarding the tree, was made by me cutting a branch of wood in single pieces.
I've made a few small holes on the base and inserted the small pieces.

About the heater, i've a small part of him driven into substrate and it's working perfectly.

The rocks I've collected from nature and the wood I've bought on local shop.

Regards,

Filipe Oliveira

Very unique and well done. I like this a lot. The sense of depth is really amazing. The scale of the tree, rock and E. parvula is perfect.

About the parvula, how is it so short? Do you trim it frequently or is it a result of the lights?
