I believe so as they look really healthy after planting... I will take a pix tomorrow and you can decide from there
My interest has wandered! Do U?
For short period starving is ok, i try that before.Yeah that's what I've been told... but I wonder how the "starving" will affect the other plantsAnother method is maintain temperature at 25 degree cold water with very strong light and UV light on.

They do your correct. Theres a european version called Aquaspot - which i place my orders on.
Although for things other than plants Ben Tan from Mizu is capeable of customising an invoice for me to get some things which arent on aquaspot, at a slightly higher than normal shipping charge though. For some things it may prove helpful.
Others i get more locally.

Methinks, you have too many types of plants...
I really like the foreground, the red plants are ok but the vivipara and vallis looks rather out of place. Some moss on the straighter parts of the wood would look good IMO.

It's not really that amazing compared to some other tanks... but I'll that as a compliment
Yest Stan. I think you are right... but again I don't really have high hopes on this tank as it's not created to look messy (not competition/concept driven)... I just wanna take the opportunity to experience as many species of plants as possible... sorta like all-in-oneMethinks, you have too many types of plants...

I find too many red plant would kill the scene itself, too distracting
My 2 cents!

I'm not alone!I find it quite refreshing actually... but then again the tank will evolve overtime. Thanks for making me 2 cents richerI find too many red plant would kill the scene itself, too distracting
My 2 cents!
Foreground and mid looks really good! Great growth too. but the downoi might get covered in a couple of weeks...
Finally back to the Aquatic world!

I'll let you two enjoy your collectoritis. I remember those days...I'm not alone!
Actually I have 5 tanks now to accommodate and multiple flowerpots of emersed plants.

I find that for that number of different plants in a tank, the dutch style suits better.

I have played with more than 200 plants and killed 80% of it.

Actually I was inspired by some tanks I saw on the internet (and books) that do not look like Amano's. That's why the approach and concept are so different this time round. So I guess the reference to "dutch style" is not inappropriate hereI find that for that number of different plants in a tank, the dutch style suits better.
As always, I do take all comments seriously... that's what posting in forum is for anyway
The ASW Issue 2 has a coverage on the Netherland Aquascaping competition, there are some nice Dutch setup there.

Thanks bro! Those are truly amazing Dutch-style tanks... don't think I have the trimming skills yet to pull through... so right now mine will be categorize as "rojak" tankThe ASW Issue 2 has a coverage on the Netherland Aquascaping competition, there are some nice Dutch setup there.
