Default Laderas del Almanzora

Hello everyone,
Some pictures from my last job, a 3-gallon aquarium.



Plants are, Eleocharis (acicularis and parvula) Hemienthus "Cuba" Micranthemum micranthemoides, and Peacock moss.



the substrat is a mixture of AKADAMA and Aqualite,





I covered the substrat with sand of river LOIRE (France)



I have used stones of "El Valle Del Almanzora" Almeria (Spain)



And this is the aquarium finished , with CO2 and light but 11w PL and another PL with 9w ,total , 20w



a few more photos:











Regards

I love your squiggly branches. Your mosses and HC nestled among the rocks is so natural. I've never met one of your tanks that I didn't love.

I'm also a big fan of the random squiggly branches! I especially like how you layered the substrate and mounded in the middle.
