Hi everyone, it's been a while since I've posted here, just been doing a rescape on the tank, thought I'd share with you a few pictures of how it's going :)

• This is what it looked like before the new scape.

• Having to get in the tank to remove the plants in the back.

• Here's what's going in; a shed load of English Oak Root Wood with Azalea Roots, Anubias and Java Fern drilled on/in.

• Not forgetting these 2 huge semi aquatic plants!

• Hours of work starting to pay off, looking a bit like a muddy puddle though haha

• Here it is now :) Waiting on the piece of bogwood in the far right to sink. Added another big Azalea Root, just waiting for the biofilm to stop growing on it, so I can siphon it off, before uploading any new pictures :)

The tank is 7ft long, 4ft wide with a 2ft depth and 16 inch tall sliding glass doors. Glass is 12mm, triple base and hold 1400 litres.
 
Very nice.
 
NICE SET UP!
