Anyhoo, all your tanks are phenomenal and your lessons are invaluable!
There is a saying "Imitation is the highest form of flattery” I hope this is true in Holland! You may see a similar scape in my house  |
Thanks! Copy and aquascape what you want. All the lay-outs where just learning lessons for myself. And I had to learn why and how plants grow.
Angels : I like them but they are real predators. I had a few special angels ( A-class black) but when they laid eggs, every other fish attacked. And my angels where breeding like mad.
In my planted tank I like to see frey. With angels, well, it is almost impossible.
So I sold all the angels.
Now I only have friendly species and sometimes I can see frey / young fish coming out the bushes. That really pleases me.
I personally don't believe the color of the substrate matters. My angels where always in perfect shape and very happy. No matter if the substrate was dark or light.
