Majestic_Aquariums Posted April 8, 2005 Report Share Posted April 8, 2005 That looks incredible!!! :drool: I like the fact that it doesn't look over-crowded-still lots of room for viewing fish. It's that type of look that made us want to try a planted tank. Have you guys set a date for your workshop yet? We will definately be attending. We really want to give this planted thing a try-doesn't get more natural looking than that!! Awesome! Rob and Rhonda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Majestic_Aquariums Posted April 9, 2005 Report Share Posted April 9, 2005 There's a link on our website for FishStreet's, for anyone that wants to know a bit more about David, Erin, and their maintenace/design buisness. They were planning to have a workshop in late spring for a more hands--on approach to learning more about planted aquariums. Should be a good time!

AndyL Posted April 10, 2005 Report Share Posted April 10, 2005 (edited) I've been biting my tongue on this one... It is a great aquascape, but I definitely see some room for improvement... Firstly, gotta deal with the collectoritis going on - too many kinds of plants, it would look much better using 3-4 plants than the current (8-9?). I don't see where you're going with the background plants... Maybe I just need to see it grown in more. For showing off your abilities, I'd definitely move away from the current aquascaping, It's almost "off the shelf" planted tank, driftwood run lengthwise - foreground ahead, background plants behind... While it is a standard for a reason - it's really only original in the driftwood used (and any driftwood is going to be a bit different than the next peice). I'd love to see you try doing something a bit more original - something that really makes people take notice. But thats just my .02$ Andy Edited April 10, 2005 by AndyL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fishstreet Posted April 11, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 11, 2005 Thank you for all the feedback everyone. Will update you on workshop soon. I am currently running a 196watts lighting system by CoralLight. Very happy with it. Andy, thank you for all your great feedback. My tank definitely do need some improvements, and I am currently working on that. Looking at your feedback, I am quit sure that you have good experience when it comes to planted tank/aquascape. I would love to see some of your creation. Please attach some of your work for our review in the next post. Fishstreet David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garhan Posted April 12, 2005 Report Share Posted April 12, 2005 Very nice display, that resembles a Ammano style of setup (japanesse form) the foreground still needs to fill in somewhat as does the background plants. I think this tank will show much better in a couple of months. Very well done though. Garhan Hopefully this time my post wont go missing...

AndyL Posted April 13, 2005 Report Share Posted April 13, 2005 LOL, I'm good at growing plants, and making other peoples tanks look great... Somehow I'm my own worst enemy (That could change if gary gets off his butt with this AA planted tank contest though). I never stick with one design long enough for it to grow in - and I've always been too anxious to grow out some more to trade/sell - thus tanks end up looking very jungle like.

Majestic_Aquariums Posted April 13, 2005 Report Share Posted April 13, 2005 We still think that your tank looks BEAUTIFUL, Fishstreet. That's the great thing about this hobby... everyone has different tastes. Some people like a planted tank that is so thick that you can't see much else, and some like just a bit to accent other features. Andy, we would sure like to see some of your photos to see what your taste is like. Good job, Fishstreet!! :w00t: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fishstreet Posted April 13, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2005 Thank you Gary for all your input. Will update everyone on the tank in couple of months. Andy, why don't you post some of your works and let the people here to decide you are good at aquascaping or good at growing plants. Looking forward to see your next post.

AndyL Posted April 13, 2005 Report Share Posted April 13, 2005 If you poke around in this forum, I've posted more than a few pictures over the last year or so. Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
