Default Memories.Transparent

I have growing Aquatic plants for two years,
This is the first time I worked on a Layout design. Hope everyone advises me

I found it is not easy to present a designed layout, My Aquascaping now is abit different from what I thought in half year ago..
The idea firstly came to my mind in a year ago was "Quiet Night Memories"...
I was trying to present a very silence remote country side at night...where likes the place I grow up...
moreover, wanted to present a emotion and feeling of a traditonal family...relax, quiet and feel free at night time....
all people there can do it was watch the stars and listen to bugs singins...
Besides, the Idea maybe nice for telling, but when I do it, I found I am not too good to make it real...


referrences brought me ideas :
pictures that inspire me...

Lets share my equipments

Tanks Size: 96cm x 40cm x 45cm(H)
Lighting System : T5HO 39W x 4 with DIY box + T8 30W x 2
CO2 System : 1kg set, 4 bubbles/sec
Filtration System : Atman CF800 940L/hr + Mr. Aqua in-water 1200L/hr + Mr.Aqua 240L/hr
Substrate System : ADA Aqua Soil Africana 27L + ADA Aqua Soil - Amazonia 9L
Dress up Accessories : Rocks 50 pounds (but only can see so little ), woods, small stones for the "river road"









As I am abit disappointed about it doesn't look like what I thought, and the pictures are not taken so well, abit blur.....
but I was enjoy since I had did everything on Aquascaping and learn so much from seniors.... and now, I am still so excited about my first Aquascaping even it is not so succee.






thx for veiwing

Stunning. Simply stunning.

The scape is excellent. A dignified silience sprinkled with a dash of serenity.

Some people may not like the uneven balance where the right side seems heavier, but I personally feel that the contrast helps to bring out your theme even more.

I wish I can be as good as you.

i tyhink i knowwhats missing from ur picture. u lack of the height of the tank. care to let us know the spec of ur tank? 1.5 ft tall? think if have a tall and deep tank would better interprate ur emotions for this scping me no art student but tried my best to understand the arts within. maybe a black background with a slightly different setup will be good. and always bros whom know me, ALTUM!! altums are good in expressing alot of emotions IMHO

felt that its already a very one as t incoorporated the essence of many aquascaper's dream. an extreme nice bland of rocks, BW, red and green plants with small pabbles
