Whoa! Nice!
I like how you combine the red tetras (are those ember tetras?) with the greenness, and the black foreground.
P.S. Welcome to AQ André!

Welcome to AQ André!
That's a big tank -- 200cm is close to 7ft long! Your tank volume should be 400L and not 200L.
Aquascape looks beautiful and successful for a low-tech setup. You only have 30W of lights over such a big tank?

Cheers

ne word...FANTASTIC...another word...BEAUTIFUL...nice layout of all the plants, n the combination of the red tetras n the green plants were just brilliant..
Very beautiful!
Hello friends,
I'm sorry Juggler, I make a mistake, the dimensions of the tank are 100X50X40 cm or 39X20X16 inch. If only 30W super-light bulb, this is correct.
Solonavi,
I love anubias nana. I' dont know if I understand your question (my english it's so bad I'm sorry) but I want leave the foreground free...
I put new pictures soon...
Tank's for all

First of all, that is a really beautiful tank, did you submit it for competition, I think it is a comeptition material.
Anyway, Solonavi meant adding some plants to the front where it is bare and I agree with him, maybe not too much, but enough to break up the empty space.
You should also add a black background to create a greater contrast.
Thank you by the incentive Jungle-Mania,
in the beginning there was a carpet of tenellus tenellus in front of the aquarium, but I thought better remove-them.
Look
About the background the suggestion would be remove the valisnérias and leave a black background, is that?
In the future I like to replace the valisnerias by Criptocorine Balansae, but the slow growth of them is an inconvenient one with decrease brightness (only 30W)
Thank's for all
(and tank's freetranslation.com )
i think your tank looks good the way it is right now...Great job!!
The valisnérias are nice, leave them! I like valisnérias heehee
Thank you guys...
ranmasatome,
they will grow soon.
I have some problems if my pictures
Hey Andre,
Very nice tank you have there.
Did you just snip off the tops of the Vallisneria? Those leaves will turn brown and die of pretty soon. Perhaps you can cut off from the base those leaves that you find too long?
Cheers.
Thank you FishFan,
...But I always cut the tip of the valisnerias and they continue growing. I never had problems.
