Bucephalandra carpet!
At the current insane prices for buceps... your tank's plant stock would be worth its weight in gold!
Bucep madness!!
How big is the tank??
Wow. I love the depth it has. Looks like scene out of a rainforest!
Cheers,

Lovely bucephalandra tank, very envy the plants mass of bucephalandra that you have.
Envy with your tank Tom,
How long does it take ?

Wow super nice, can I know the duration taken for the buceps roots to hold onto the wood?
A very expensive scape!!! Very beautifully done. Thanks for sharing
Buces are slower to attach than same Anubias, but they root strongly once they do.
Cost was less than many assume because I bought only a few and then grew them up, selling off 100% of the original cuttings.
So these are all grow in this same tank.
I already made my money back and then some.
Buying a sad little plant that was shipped for 6 days/week etc, versus a big fat happy plant, much different.
Growing nice healthy plants is the bets method. Then you leave the natural environment alone.
Same thing for the White Anubias, I sold the main plants and then kept the stump ratty ends, which grew into what you see here.
Hi, did you dose any fertilizer for this bucephalandra setup?
Beautiful and very healthy looking buce garden. Never seen anything quite like this before, probably due to the prohibitive cost and the slow growing nature of these plants.

When I saw the topic of this thread, I got all excited then I clicked on it. I saw the first picture. I was honestly first of all disappointed. I was expecting this.
Disappointment aside. I like the shot taken. Its very cool, can?
EI and the sediment is roughly 2 year old ADA aqua soil.
Lots of fish and bristle nose plecos bred a few times so far in here.
amano and RCS's.
The light is 8x39W T5 ATI fixture running at 40% output for 6 hours with a 0-40% ramp up and down for 1 hour at the end of each cycle. So 8 hours total of light with dawn dusk effect.
Wet/dry filter, CO2 reactor in the sump area.
Tank is VERY easy to care for after you get it going.
Do you dose iron for growth and bring up the redness of some of the species of bucep?
Another masterpiece! Honestly, I can't appreciate bucephalandra, but your tank opened up a new world of possibilities!!
AWEsome tank Tom!!
I'm inspired to do the same on my driftwood and around it's base of my tiny 2ft tank! Cost is limiting it at the moment and those little bucephalandra that I have barely grows haha. Does bucephalandra grow well if partially shaded by the driftwood?
Very inspiration tank and the amount of fishes!
