Mini-M - Page 2 - Aquascaping

Great job! I think once it fills in, that a contest photo without the equipment will reveal a scape that looks much larger than it is. My only advice would be to add another anubias on the left hand side just to the right of the branch that curves upward.

Thanks John for the input! I felt that it needed more anubias but had a hard time fitting some in due to the limited space for foreground but I think I figured something out.

If you need it I can sell you some anubias petite.

Of course my advice is contradictory to my own tank which has a single anubias smack dab in the center

Thanks John and Turtlehead.

I bought lots of plants to set this one up and actually have a good amount nana petite that was left over.

I really like this layout!! it really captures my interest and makes me want to look longer. I'd love to see more pics when it fills in

I will be updating probably every week up to the deadline which I seriously doubt I will make.

I added a little piece of anubias to the left DW but more of in front right of it cause it didn't look right to the right. Also my umbrosum that is on the left have all dwindled away cause I forgot to mist them while I was laying everything else out so I have to find some of that now.

Nice tank with droolworthy gear.

It's probably worthwhile to trim the straggly strands of moss that will grow out of place.

Thanks Stan,

I was going to snip them since I somehow missed them when I tied the moss down but I thought it might give off a good effect once it starts to "weep" so I want to see how it will grow first before snipping it.

eklikewhoa - really like the Mini-m you got going on there. I've become a fan of the bold hard scape in the mini tanks. Your's has a dark, misterious old oak in the forest look. It's going to be really neat when it fills in a bit on the ground. I'm courious to see how you trim this bad boy though! I have a hard spot in mine to get to, your's looks like its going to have a couple. lol. Keep up the great work and keep updating.
