Is your tank high tech or low tech? Nice scraping

**issacyeo** · 28th Nov 2011, 08:39

neat scape. noob question: the centre piece is a driftwood or rock? and in my opinion, the background is kind of bare.

For me, Its consider medium... The plants might not trim often but WC need to be frequent and dose fert carefully

Can't see the whole composition but it look nice.

The fern on the left, is taht what they call Aqua fern? If yes then it is terrarium plants, scientific name Trichomanes javanicum

the fern on the left is fighting attention with the big rock imo..
the soil exposed between the fern and the rockscape can be more obvious .. so less HC and more soil , perhaps some smashed tiny rocks to blend in

otherwise the hardscape looks blend well .. as its mainly a rockscape.. the big fern is still too big .. maybe opt for downoi?

I think you are right with this plant ID. Any glue resize the picture?

Ya, fern is too big from the scape. Since the fern is not aquatic plant, I believe its only can survive for another 2 month.
