Nice! I was thinking it is LED effect.

I notice.. after going thru' stan picture many times.. it seem to be in trend having small pocket of plants growing wild/nature all over the places. in the past it used to be bigger pocket of plants growing on left and right or centre of tank taking the centre piece point of focus - we used to call them island. now it seem.. as mentioned "small pocket of plants growing all over the places" is in favor. Its quite difficult not to make it look like the pocket of plant drop from the sky. think you guys executed it well.

That is NA style. Put the plant in and then left it to grow wild

All so nice !
no.1 rock scape looks so impossible
I personally like 4 & 6 a lot

as much as beautiful the aquascape is, good photography and and photoshop is as important to deliver the theme.
Like this one is quite good, but the resolution is bad and the lake wasnt feature well enough. the depth of field is quite good with the addition of sky backdrop

Is this HC? why does it look so puffy?

or are they flatten marimo balls?

**Shadow** · 20th Oct 2011, 08:11

I thought riccia would be a little spikey around the edges. Shadow could be right on the mini pellia.. hmm. Anyway, amazing hardwork to all the bros that participated! I wish one day I can be in that list
