Hi all,
Though not new to aquascaping, this is a come back for me after almost 7 years of absence.
Tank was given to me by a colleague and rather than leaving it empty, i started a cheap an easy tank. only a month old, with only malaysian shrimps, 4 ottos, and 2 SAE.
water chg = 1/4 per wk.
h20 temp = 25 deg C
2x 36 watts 6500K osram pl lights
lighting time = 8 hrs/ day
fertilizer = not started yet.
CO2 supply = 6 bps
pH value = 6.85
photo. equip used:h / 1dmk2 and 50mm carl zeiss lens, manual priority.
please enjoy, comments and critique most welcomed for newbie like me.
wk 1 - 2 hrs after planting.
wk 2 - using stone to weight down driftwood.
wk 3 - after prunning and trimming. stone taken away
wk 5 - some floating plants removed.
cheers!!

why drink and drive when one can smoke and fly.
nice tank. i guess the high input of co2 cos little fishes and perhaps to increase the growth rate of plants?
Think the nana mount might look before on the left rather than on the right.
It is now like suddenly something piled there. Also can use it to cover up the legs of the step plants.
Yeah agree with valice on the nana position and cut your stem plants in half and replant the other half at the rear left corner to give a more natural feel when it starts to grow taller.
Good work, plants looks very healthy and good photography.
maybe you may want to add some plants infront of your background stem plants, as i think the stems of your background plants are exposed under the bogwood.
overall a nice scape

Had a glimpse at the ADA 2007 grand prize winning tank. It is something like that
Add more smaller woods at the left pointing to the same directions and stack your right annubias to the left background and exposing it. This will give a more clear definition of your layout.

a very nice tank. simple yet soothing imo.
Nice job planting but the piping is kinda of a eye sore ... Any suggestion from some experts to make it look better ??
