    Whenever we go to Teo's place, the attention is always on his 9ft tank. Have you guy noticed that Liu's tank (the middle one in the backyard) has turned out beautifully with that bushy and red Didiplis diandra. Wish someone would take a photo of that tank.

    Geof,

    Of course... frankly, the tank he did is very high standard... very eye catching and well arranged. I feel it's very balanced in terms of arrangement and plant health.
    Cheers!!

    Agreed, his tank is quite nice now, like tank with the thick growth of java fern and DDs, lots of driftwood stack up high with riccis, hairgrass .... hope someone will post a shot of that tank.[]

    Ah Liu's tank... too bad for the afternoon glare.


    The 9ft tank... glare also.

    i still prefer teo's tank.
    btw, i think a little more red plants would spice it up.

    i love the DD in ah liu's tank... very very red at the tip as of 2wks ago.. just love it. After many times of talking with him, i observed that he like to do scaping using wood tied with plants.. told me that there are around 10 - 20 assorted size Driftwood in this tank.

    Anyway, i got some emersed ones from his brother but turn out to become ludwigia... haiz..

    According to the man himself, Ah Liu - he doesn't switch off his lights. That could probably explain why ours, with more light than his, can't produce DD as red as his. You may have also noticed that his tank's water is cool even without a chiller. I always thought that amazing.

    you'd be amazed how much cooling outdoor breeze can produce! my moss wouldn't grow in the tank but thrive in the pond.

    Hahhaha!

    Do bother trying to get him to cut anything from the tank...Don't think Ah Liu will be happy if you disturb his tank[]

    Thanks KF for the pic !

    Were there last Sat and the java fern and DDs were higher and thicker, BTW, found out that the java fern on the left-side(besides the DDs) were not attached to any driftwood, it's just one big lump together interesting....
    ...I love rubies too ...
