Nice. Picture is copyrighted? Looks like copyright emblem at the bottom left.

automatic-hydromatic · 12-25-2010, 10:04 AM

I'm afraid I'm going to have to see more pics than that

looks nice!

Big Dog · 12-25-2010, 11:06 AM

Very nice planted aquarium.

tropicalworld · 12-25-2010, 09:49 PM

Great photo of a great tank

Alasse · 12-25-2010, 10:08 PM

Thanx guys

jrman83 - Yes the pic is, its mine and i dont want it used anywhere without my permission

You will find most of my pics carry this.

auto.. - I'll grab a new pic soon, just gotta trim some of the stems and replant them

Kaiden32 · 12-26-2010, 01:25 PM

Very nice!

snail · 12-27-2010, 12:24 PM

Lovely! Tell us more about the tank setup.

tropicalworld · 12-27-2010, 07:10 PM

and how you took the great panoramic picture without a flash glare head on

Alasse · 12-27-2010, 08:29 PM

snail ~ what would you like to know?

tropicalworld ~ Generally i take the pics at night, with all the room lights off. So only lights are the tanks lights. I have a tripod and use manual setting, turn off flash.

Though i will admit the above pic was taken using a flash, as the tank is in an office and my partner was wroking in there, and i couldnt turn off the room lights, i just had the camera pointing down toward the tank to minimise flash glare, then edited out the glare from the photo

majerah1 · 12-27-2010, 10:04 PM

I want your driftwood,lol.Very pretty.Do you ever sell plant clippings?

Alasse · 12-28-2010, 01:14 AM

*L* Lots want my driftwood......

I dont generally sell them. I usually reuse them in this tank or move them into other tanks, maybe when the other tanks are full i will *L*

snail · 12-28-2010, 05:33 AM

I take it that's the 350l tank? I see an angel, are there other fish in there? What about CO2, ferts and substrate. When I see a tank I like I like to know what the owner did to get it that way (besides artistic flair). Thanks for sharing

Alasse · 12-28-2010, 03:33 PM

Yep 350litres.

Stocked with (not yet fully stocked)

2 angels (breeding pair)
2 clown loaches
1 redtail shark
4 albino BN

No CO2 or Fertz

Substrate is Dinosaur Dung in heavily planted areas then whole tank topped with laterite/gravel mix

snail · 12-29-2010, 12:32 AM

Interesting, what lighting do you have?

Alasse · 12-29-2010, 03:39 AM

Single Dalbarb 4ft T8 & Single Hagen Glo T5 (one on each side)

:D:D

Alasse · 01-03-2011, 01:53 AM

Update pic, taken tonight

snail · 01-03-2011, 04:11 AM

I'm really interested in this tank because it's very similar to the setup I'm working on setting up at the moment and I love the way yours looks. What is the plant with the wavy reddish leaves, a crypt I think?

Alasse · 01-03-2011, 05:17 AM

Yep its a crypt, unsure on its full naming. Its very very hardy, i bought 3 original plants and its offshoots are now through 3 planted tanks
