Getting much better than previously

yeah thanks, still need to do some more trims.
hope to get into shape by then.

The left side looks abit dark, if you can bring the wood attach with Java fern(i guess) down touching the soil may look better and bright. Currently it looks symmetry to the right hand side. Too symmetry looks like mirror and it look fake. Just a suggestion.

Hi tcy81, what light you using for this setup? How much you have spend in total? Just a rough guide for my next setup. Thank you for your information...

[eviltrain]

brother sword,
tcy81's setup is 2-3 times more expensive than a normal setup as his is mostly consist of ADA products. estimalted hardware price around 3-4k?

[zonkkie]

Just went to Biotope yesterday and Victor mentioned he knows only one other person (other than his boss) has the filter... Haha, so its you. Nice! Any updates to the tank?

By the way, I think the equipment more than 4k. Filter 2k, Lights 2k and tank almost 1k already.

[Holy_Dee]

They are really cool man!I envy you. Wish all the best to your whole set.

Hey chee Yong, how is the scape going now? The scape is really nice. I see a high ranking tank here in IAPLC.

[Fei Miao]

Great looking tank, preparing for the shoot for submission?

[ranmasatome]

wah! a lot of difference! and i'm really enjoying your tank.

Get the reds a little more bushy by trimming and then do a final shape trim for eveything else after that. Once it grows out...snap a nice picture

To be continue .......

Hi tcy81 - Mind to tell me what is the black layer stuff under that ADA tank?

Thanks!

[genes]

It's the ADA garden mat. A rubber like material that replaces the ugly white styrofoam we placed under our tanks.

[Shadow]

if not mistaken it is neoprene

[kaka23]

well.. I am new in this hobby. Mind to enlighten me what is the purpose of placing the mat under the tank?

Thanks!
