First time I've seen this tank...REALLY nice!

There's something very elegant about some driftwood, sand, and anubias. Many people just throw plants everywhere and don't understand the value of whitespace in an aquascape.

Something magical about the use of simple plants. Anubias, java fern and java moss really make a nice scape in any tank. Good job.

Amazing, I love how simple but detailed it looks! I'm trying to go for that sort of substrateless-plants/center driftwood look as well; I could only hope to create something half as awesome as yours. What substrate are you using? Is it just sand (what kind)? I love that color/blend.

How about an update?
I'm trying to copy this style for my 12" cube.
