Hi,

I've done a selection of my old layouts since I start in the Aquascaping hobby.

Some of these layouts aren't new for you, but there are others that I think that I never shared...

Please feel welcome to criticise!

Wow, amazing collection.
You are a great artist!

Beautiful, very pleasing to the eyes.
My fav is the moss tree overhanging the sand "river".

So many original looking scapes! I have to say that your "tree scapes" are one of my all-time favorite and most memorable scapes. Congrats!

 

[helgymatt]

Oh yeah! You have done a lot of scapes and I love all of them! This gives me lots of ideas for my next scape in 2 weeks

 

[helgymatt]

this one I especially like

I love your tree scapes, but I have never seen this one and I really like it! I love the shades of green in it, and how the stones are so smooth while all the plants have a spiky texture. Its a very neat balance. What is making the stones green? Are they colored like that or is it moss or a type of algae or something? I've never seen it before and I think it looks so natural. I wish I could do stuff like this!
Oh, and what kind of moss is that?

Hi,

Thanks to all for the comments, compliments and kindly words!

What is making the stones green? Are they colored like that or is it moss or a type of algae or something? I've never seen it before and I think it looks so natural. I wish I could do stuff like this!

The stones had that coloration with algae. Even if I did use some fish to avoid that, I think that I only solved that "problem" using Neritinas natalensis; but I really appreciate the colour of the stones like it is, for this reason I didn't use those inverts to clean it.

Oh, and what kind of moss is that?

Is Singapore moss (Vesicularia dubyana).

Once again, thanks to all for the support!

What is that tall plant breaking the surface in the above tank?? I have to know

I've always admired your work, and i'm really looking forward to seeing more in the future. Its always been inspirational to me even after basically drooling over your pics in the past they still really motivate me today.

That plant is Echinodorus palaefolius var. latifolius. If you want to see the journal's tank and further information about that aquarium, click on the following link: 350L Plantado Vs Discos ' Aquajournal - Amazonic

This is truly amazing. I had seen some of your scapes before, but to see them all like this is a work of art.

I love your tree scapes!!! I just got some driftwood earlier this week and kinda made a tree, then I found out that you were basically famous for them and wow!!! I can only hope mine will look like that!

 

[flashback]

You have an artists eye, I can say that every setup is great and so many different themes.
