60cm opti-white - Aquascaping

This a minor re-scaped version of my 2008 ADA entry.

Will look nice in 2-3 weeks once the Rotala and Blyxa have filled the background.

Hi George,

is it due to the opti white glass the fish seem to show more colour? Great tank and healthy fish and plants.

I´m at the point deciding whether opti white or float glass...looking forward to your answer, thanks a lot!

Regards,
Mark.

Thanks.

Mark - opti-white has more clarity. Whether or not this is noticeable in a photo like this.... I couldn't say. It is more noticeable in the flesh though.

Photoshop can enhance colours.

hey george, what type of bulbs did you use to give the tank that white, daylight, sort of gloss? are they all daylight?

Hi George,

would you say optiwhite is worth to pay 100% more than the price for the same tank size in float glass?

Regards,
Mark.

Yea serriously what kind of lighting are you using, I know you have some awesome glass but I can't credit it completely for the amazing color you have

Any updates on this tank George?

For sure, colors are amazing, really good photo too.

Only suggestion/question: what is the white stuff on the java fern in the middle? It should probably be removed for an even better picture.

I think that is the plant pearling from underneath. Anyways Great looking tank. More pictures of the tank and setup would be good.
