Wow! Absolutely stunning! You can see a lot of effort has gone into that tank, and by the looks of it, the reward was well worth it. Well done!

 

Looking good

 

Very nice looking tank.

 

Very nice tank!! Love the fish and plants!! I think you should try cover the big pipe on the left as it takes something away from this amazing tank!!

 

Nice tank - like the plumbing - please give a description of the flow route

 

Very nice setup you have there! I agree with corylyle1 - if there is anything that could be improved, and there isn't much to be honest, it would be trying to hide the plumbing a little. But I love it!

 

ditto above, it detracts from an otherwise very nice looking tank, well done

 

Overflow pipe on the left will in time be covered/hidden by plants. The two smaller return pipes are a little more difficult to hide. They just blow the stems over that come close to them. I will give details on the plumbing later.
Thx for all the compliments

 

the outlets aren't that much of a problem if it were the only visible aspect, covering the overflow pipe will give quite a greater aesthetic bonus imho.
why not add a nice piece of wood in the centre there infront of the vallis?

Other than that, its still a nice, simplistic calm, serene scene, i like it

 

the tank looks great

 

the tank looks fantastic man. with a 3000l/h return does that not toss the sand up a bit

 

Tank looks awesome, love the way you constructed the waterflow in the tank...:smile1:

 

Awesome

what's the plant back Right?

 

I think that's cabomba of sorts Gilbert.

 

Its limnophila sessiflora

Here are some pics over the plumbing

 

Wow very very nice!!!!!!!

 

Here is a quick update...
I have moved the driftwood in the middle of the tank to close up the gap i had in the middle. I also moved the rotala and limnophilia around.

Right hand side

Nice, VERY Nice

 

Now that looks awesome!
