That's insane

This.^ Only if I could get my next tank to look like that.

Ionut Godea · 12-28-2012, 08:01 AM

Thank you for your appreciation!

Changes. What's your opinion?

I honestly prefer the version before the moss. It feels very out of place to me. I even find the moss color distracting. It was a nearly perfect composition of plants hard-scape and color before. Just my opinion.

I really felt floored by the shapes and simplicity of your early versions. It was so warm and magical. Maybe its important to understand I have a minimalist heart when soaking up my criticism.

I like the color of the moss in terms of contrast but I agree it seems out of place at the moment. I think I would put it on all the branches so it covers all the wood.

marioman72 · 02-14-2013, 06:59 AM

the UG looks much more vibrant. liking the trimming you are doing with the background plants. very nice work as usual. what is your dosing regimen to get these great colors?

Ionut Godea · 02-16-2013, 08:17 PM

@ Tcal01 - Thank you very much!
@ marioman72 - Thank you!! I use Easy life products: Easy Carbo, Profito, Nitro, Fosfo. But, lately I haven't dose any fertilisers, just CO2.

Such an inspiring tank. VERY unique!

walluby · 02-21-2013, 02:59 PM

I think you should decide on what your focal point is.
The rocks or the driftwood. In the latter scapes,
your rocks have disappeared, whereas in the earlier
ones your rocks were a big part of the layout.
I would take what you have learned and start a new
tank with driftwood and a different layout.

@ synaethetic - Thank you very much!!

@ walluby - In your opinion, what is a focal point?
