Hi,

I have to disagree on a particular case: im in Portugal, and people here when go to setups like 3 or 4WPG choose always HQI or PC stuff.

Best Regards

Most of the plant addicts in Belgium don't even have 2wpg. PC isn't used for aquarium purposes. MH and T5 are for SW.

Great interview Carlos. Frode Roe's tanks from the 2000 AGA (especially his 2nd place entry) have been my absolute favorites since the very first time I saw them. They made such a striking impression, even on my untrained eyes, that I couldn't help but be deeply moved. His work has had the strongest influence on what I like to see in planted tanks.

I do feel that Dutch aquascaping has been marginalized by the (fairly) recent influence of Eastern tank design. While Amano's aquascapes are beautiful in their own right, I don't like the idea of trying to imitate or duplicate nature nearly as much as I like the expression of one's own creativity, in whatever form it might take. Thanks for letting us in on what Frode's been up to, I was wondering myself
