    Competition is not just creating beautiful scape, there are also background work like understanding Judges preference .

    Can lah, 45 does not take long to maintain but it also depend on the scape. Normally, if you copy amano scape, it easier to maintain compare to Taiwan/Hong Kong type of scape.

    Re: Iaplc2014

    already setup a nanoscape to warm up and get back into the groove.
    mainly to practice hardscape placement.


    still finalizing sketches for the main tank.
    but due to space constrain i cant go for anything bigger than a 60cm tank

    need a lot of work on photography though.

    Re: Iaplc2014

    In my opinion, you tank scape is quite nice. If I were you, I will remove all the nana, remove all the stem plant at the back and add HC or glosso on the foreground. I thing slightly smaller wood would be better, say 10% smaller. Currently it feel like not enough empty space, but too late for that .

    Re: Iaplc2014

    Thank you for your input, am currently trying to get a carpet, using HM though, will tryout HC.

    Agree with the wood(s), it's either a bigger tank or change the whole scape haha..

    If the nana were to be remove, will there be a need to replace with another?

    The back stem plants were used temporary as was facing massive BBA, read somewhere to plant fast growing plants

    Will think through and adjust as per comments

    Thanks again

    Re: Iaplc2014

    HM will not carpet unless your light extremely high.

    nana removed without replacement, make it simple to highlight the wood formation which in my opinion quite nice.

    BBA is more due to unstable CO2, check your CO2 is it empty or still 1000psi, I'm assuming you are injecting cO2.

    Re: Iaplc2014

    Okie, probably will go with glosso as previous attempt with hc was met with lots of melting haha was using 4x24w t5ho lights.

    Noted on the nana, will remove them.

    The BBA have since disappear after switching back to co2 using normal diffuser (2bps).Previously was using inline diffuser and BBA appear.

    Thanks again.

    Are we allow to share pictures of our tanks if we may have intention to try out for next year? I believe Shadow share some information about some contestants getting disqualified last year.

    Ingen

    think that is for top contenders.
    previously when I submit in 2012, I did show. but that was not the entry picture.

    Re: Iaplc2014

    Officially cannot, well at least not the same picture. You can share picture A of the same tank to public and submit picture B of the same tank but taken at different date to IAPLC. Unofficially they don't really care unless you are in the top 127. However, last year IAPLC committee did disqualify some of the Thailand participants because their final picture was published in the newspaper before the NA party.
