Pic of my new tank

This is my latest setup. I use mostly stem plants and trying to do a dutch style. Well, not exactly turn out to be what I hope to.

Feel free to comment.

Hi Jacian,

What's the dimension of your tank?

Regards

hi jacian

I really like the usage of the red plants to highlight the tank.....not too much, just right...it a waste that the foreground is alittle short...or is that it done on purpose

It's a nice tank.
IMHO, foreground is a bit short.

Wow ! Jacian, its fantastic - I wish I can also do that. Pruning and maintenance must be a nightmare for Dutch style aquariums.

Hi jacian, very nice tank. I like your choice of plants.

Hey Jacian,

Very nice setup! Gearing up for another competition []

Thanks for the kind words
I agreed that the foreground is a bit thin. Afterall, the tank is barely one month old, got to wait for it to grow.

The size of the tank is 75x40x60(h)cm

Wah Jacian,

Your dutch style tank no horse run man.......

Jason:

Buay Tah Han!

Did you use any terracing to get the sloping effect to the end?
Is the substrate sloping to the rear?
Or you prune it to get the sloping effect?

Is that H. polysperma in the front? May grow out of hand ...

Cheers!

[jacian]

Juggler,

Not really terracing, just some slope. The effect is mainly done by the pruning. Yes, the front is H. polysperma, it is a mistake to have it
