My new aquascape. Opinions?

[GrantA94]

Peruvian biotope: 135g, 3x3x2.

I have given the tank a re-do. I decided that the current setup wasn't enough like my vision of peru. After a lot of research, I have found that stalsbergi reside in more rocky areas. So I added a lot more rocks. I also added 15kg more sand so that I could have different levels of sand. The tank is a little murky due the sand. I also carried out a 80-90% water change.


attached is a picture of it before hand.

Please feel free to critique honestly, I wont be offended. I am rarely satisfied with my aquascapes, but this one pleases me

Just realised they are ordered wrong. The second to last is the beforehand...

looks great! They way you placed the rocks looks very natural

 

[GrantA94]

Thankyou, Natural is what I was going for.

Looks very nice I like the rock lay out a lot

Looks good! I think it's an improvement over the previous scape. Personally, I would add more branches coming down from the waters surface as well as maybe some kind of floating plant.

 

[GrantA94]

Thankyou I agree, It appears to reduce aggression aswell.

There is more branches at the rear, they just cant be seen because of the cloudiness. As for the floating plants, I think they would just end up in the overflow strainer. Unless some can be attached to the branches? Any suggestions?

I really like it. What are the dimensions on your tank? Just curious.

 

[GrantA94]

Thankyou!

The tank is 36" wide, 36" deep and 24" tall. I refer to it as the squashed cube.
