I delayed the scape a little but finally worked on it earlier today. I spent a few hours over the past week peeling the bark from my manzanita branches and got 99% of it off.
I also ended up finding a 10lb co2 cylinder for a decent price and set that up with the Rex regulator and a ceramic diffuser.
I guess you could call this a preliminary scape since I'm not entirely satisfied with it. But, from what I understand with dirt I don't have too long to settle on what I like unless I enjoy making a mess.
Stocking at this point is limited to a pearl gourami and a rubberlip pleco until I settle/find the rest. Oh, and I need to add a black background, might try to get that done tomorrow after work. Please feel free to make comments/suggestions on the scape, anywhere from hardscape to plants.
