Great idea with the shower sponges. Thanks for posting

This has inspired me to make more moss wrapped stones. I love mosses.

Here are more photos as promised. I think I'll be removing the purple bamboo and penny-wort as it breaks the field look. Or just keep the bamboo in the rear to create a backround. The subwassertang is taking for ever. I've added some local fissedens which are taking off and some moss's from Robert @ Aquabotanic.
Well enjoy

well I'm outa here, time for sushi

look for my wife Sunny's aquarium which should be up tomorrow in a separate thread.

Great tank!

It really reminds me of New England brooks and whatnot in the mountains loads and loads of moss covered rocks, lots of leafy liverworts, stringy moss, etc. (and yes even riccia sometimes)

Very Nice

so you did keep some riccia. Looks sharp. I like that bamboo.

Jeff.:P:. · 11-19-2008, 05:18 PM

Thanks!

I think the New England rivers/brooks definitely did have an impact on the scape. I might pull the bamboo and the pennywort out, it breaks up the scape too much. But the Ottos and shrimp love hanging out on it. tuff call. Yes I did end up keep just one rock with riccia, who knows when I might want to cover everything with it again.

Thanks again.

Hi Jeff, anyway you can have a close up on pelia and subwrrastang?

Thanks

You might be right about the bamboo and the pennywort. If you want a taller element, mayby just a couple of slender branches of driftwood. Beautiful tank! I'm turning a little green myself. Thanks for sharing.

I'd say keep the bamboo in the back. Lose the penny wort. Send me both :P
