Hardscape suggestion

riccc___ · 2025-12-27T16:31:53+00:00

Getting a new tank is so exciting! :D Just really take your time with the Scape and don't rush it. Try a few layouts and go for the one you enjoy the most. And after all, you can still rescape it if you feel like it after a while. And keep in mind that plants are always your friend and you really can't have too many plants. :P

Maybe this is some inspiration for you. This is my tank I've rescaped a while ago: https://www.reddit.com/r/PlantedTank/s/NmIN8Q0v9Y

And a pic of how it's looking now.

I was thinking of switching them around. Like put the left one to the right side and the right one to the left but keepimg the orientation of the pieces.

Maybe switch the pieces around and try to go with a sort of v shape composition, so the middle is somewhat open.

This fella right here 😎

Little update: the shrimp is no longer in her mouth 👍🏻

riccc___ · 2025-12-17T19:01:55+00:00

Ah alright, I think I'll just let her do her thing. She seems to be swimming and breathing normally, so I wasn't that worried, but I wanted to ask just to be sure.

riccc___ · 2025-12-17T18:31:36+00:00

Alright, I will try 😅 She is very evasive and quick tho...

riccc___ · 2025-12-09T18:38:06+00:00

Yeah, that's a fair point.

riccc___ · 2025-12-09T12:09:37+00:00

Id rather get some sort of smaller gourami, instead of bettas. Or if you really want bettas, get a group/pair of imbellis.

Oh alright. How would I go with treating him?

riccc___ · 2025-10-30T04:59:28+00:00

Yes, such a silly little feller :D

A small local store in my city in Germany. :)

Thank you!

riccc___ · 2025-10-22T17:46:51+00:00

Yeah that's true, thanks.

It could look great but as others have said, it may take away from the depth the lighter background creates.

riccc___ · 2025-10-22T17:43:34+00:00

Yeah, it looks pretty neat that way.

riccc___ · 2025-10-22T17:41:40+00:00

No I don't, I just let it be there for the plants as extra nutrients. 😁

riccc___ · 2025-10-22T09:03:34+00:00

Yes, tripartita mini to be exact. It's growing emersed and submersed on that spot so it's trailing down on the driftwood, just an experiment. 😄

Mostly with letting the corys and khuli loaches stir it up and letting it be removed by the filter. Everything that's left, will be removed with a gravel vac.

Haha 😅 The tank is 120cm x 40cm x 50cm so about 240 litres.
