3ft "Amazonia river bank" theme

Thanks all....will not be submitting for the ADA 2007 le.
Hopefully by next year when the tank is mature enough then consider ba...hehe. Now just need to correct some problems like holes in leaves, bba etc first....

Huh?? why not?? it looks okay... just dont send the 2000yen for the book.. its still free that way..

Ronald, as the plants grow thicker and thicker, it is easy to loose the focus point of the tank. The scape would not stand out, if the plants were not trimmed and arranged properly.

Before next year I guess you already lost the fresh feeling of current setup and change the scaping again...than is like forever next year.

They wont use microscope to inspect you pic unless you are the top 1 winner so no wory to the holes on the leave.

Who know you might be in the top ten list.

Is that tree bark in the background?? or wall paper??

If its bark.... will that do anything to the PH of the water?? Am thinking of doing something similar for my CRS tank......

[ryzcris]

not wallpaper lah... looks like styrofoam or fibreglass type background...
but cork bark will be nice... can even plant moss on them...

Personally still love moss wall best...
HAha...

Yeah....i totally agree with you bro, right now its growing and growing .....have to cut and trim like mad to maintain my scape

Guess i will take all e advice here and try to submit for ADA2007. thanks all again!

Scubabonks....as regard to the background its actually those cheap cheap styloform backing as Ryzcris mentioned. I prefered moss wall too....but hard to maintain it....hehe

Hi, could I ask what is the plant at the background, the tall thin ones?

Thanks.
