    Hi! Somewhat new to the forum but not to the method. My passion is applying my background in engineering, photography, and design to create Walstads that both function splendidly and look aesthetically pleasing.

  2. DIY Aquarium Projects
    I have an idea for an aquascape that I'd like to try out - a design that calls for some fairly large stones. In order to achieve the specific look I want, sans the weight and cost, I'd like to try and make my own faux stones. I'm fairly confident that I have found the material I'd like to use...
  3. Aquascaping
    Hello, this is my first aquascape, and I would appreciate your feedback. Something seems off, so I've included a couple ideas. However, feel free to deviate from my points. Top half seems too empty More soil to raise the rocks? Add more rocks? The wood on the right side seems off Too much...

    Hey all! I've had this tank for about 4 months now but never got a chance to post is on APC. It's less of a scape and more of a trial and error tank to learn how to plant, grow, and prune the plants, so the plant species are subject to change anytime. So far the specs are: Lighting -2x...

  15. Aquascaping
    Okay, to start of I'm going to be honest I have a really, really bad aquascape. There's no real placement of the plants, I have a little bit of BBA lying around after an infestation and the tank is just all around ugly. I have tried to fix it myself, but to no avail. That's why I have turned to...
