I like it!!! The orange highlights give some character to what would otherwise be a tangled mess. Nice foreground too.

I really like the sloping feel to it, very calm and relaxed, it's amazing that you can get such great quality photos from the phone camera

Well guys I got a new Canon 30D for christmas and i'm a total n00b to slr photography but i think im getting used to it. Here are a couple shots of my tank.

Very nice, db. Just saw this thread.

Can you please share the tank specs? Also, what is the pH of the tank and are you adding peat?

Unique biotope set up, DB! Rio Negro 'tope are usually that bright and "cheery" I really like your spin on it!

What do plan on doing for your next scape? Are you sticking with the Rio Negro biotope "format," or trying something new altogether?

I love the new pics, hair algae is kinda one of those where ya gotta manually pick it off, had it completely ravage my tank :-/

but anywho, the tank is looking fantastico!!

Right now I am adding Seachem's Flourish, Prime, Excel and Trace. I dont have a test kit so I couldnt tell you the water parameters. I came up on some money and will buy one soon.

I kinda want to go back to something like this

But with the same plants and fish

Or maybe even this set up


With a mound of sand on the left side running down to the right. have the PG on the left intertwining with the driftwood and the E. ten on the right side some what like a grassy area.

Well I guess its a good thing im breaking down this tank


Thanks for the comments everyone! hope you guys like me tank

for visual sake, I like the first picture, for a "natural" look I would choose the 3rd picture, which I like as well.
It all depends on what you want from your set up

Man, i just loved this Hardscape, still looking at it!

Some little plecos and some other fishes that enjoy driftwood would do great in this tank.
