first attempt at 3 foot planted tank

Hows the tank growing out?

 

doing well that bush behind my ship wreck is getting fuller. just the red plant going no where, no sure if its supposed to get bushier or have new growth.. it still kinda looks the same as when i got it from you. just a few leaves short. will take a pic tonight

 

update on this tank, done rescaping but looking at turning it into a full moss tank. so minimal plants, i have some grass in the front and a few ambulias and valis at the back.

 

Nicely done. Tie lots of moss on that ship. It will look wicked when it's covered.

 

fanx. will do i also want to have moss walls on the back and side. busy power growing my moss at the momment.

 

looking good ..
lol I see you also wanting moss tank now !

 

@Ammar please can you tell how you power growing the moss

 

@St@tic, by power grow i mean just chuck in a tank and let it grow, I have a tanks with various pieces of wood and decent lighting, when i get moss i just chuck it in there and leave it. once i have enought i move it over to my bigger tank and attache it properly. its a long process but definetly worth it.

LOL @byronb after i saw those tanks you showed me i just want one. i saw one at VIP northgate and it looks awesome. the buggers wouldn't sell me any..

 

@Ammar I do the same thing but was hoping you had a over night thing lol
