Here are some pictures of my new scape. I started it in august, but still not finished.
Did a rescape today.
I only need some more HC and some stem plants like Rotala and aromatica's in the left rear corner.
The Hc has to fill up the front and the gap between left and right.

tank: 100x40x50 (180 liters)
Light : 2 x t5 45 watt 2 x t8 30 watt
CO2: 2L diy
Substrate:gravel
Filter:Eheim 2217 1000l/h

Beautiful, I could watch this tank all day

I'm not crazy about the gourami, but your scape is fantastic!

This scape looks great. Love to see another pic when the hemianthus callitrichoides has completely spanned the foreground!

Tell me, how did you lift up the plants in the background, center-left and right?

all the plants are attached to wood

Are you using potting soil? Or is the brown stuff flourite or just brown colored gravel? With just gravel it is going to be difficult to sustain HC.

its "superfish" gravel.

I've already done it before on this soil.
you can see it here.

Enter this in the TOTY contest. It's really a nice scape!

(Hide the gourami, shoot the px. then put him back in.

Thnx for the amazing comments, but TOTY?? I don't think I have a chance. The tank is far from his final layout.
