Hi everybody. I saw this forum on "ForumAquagora", a french forum. I would like to present you my planted tank. His size : 160cm*60cm*60cm (576 liters). His name : "un bout de nature".
I use Powersand, Clear super, Bacter 100, Tourmaline BC and Aquasoil Amazonia. Lightining : 3*150W HQI (5200K). For fertilization : Tropica Aquacare Alimentation+, Easylife Easycarbo and CO2.

The hardscape at the beginning :

Your tank is beautiful. Very soft and relaxing. Love the placement of the reds. Looks like fall in a forest with the trees turning.
