Hi all been a while since I've been on here, recently moved house so I've been a little busy. Before moving the wife give me the chance to start from scratch again so my old set up all went in the bin ( apart from the livestock and 1 piece of driftwood) I was going to record the setup step by step and post it on here but with time being against me I never got round to it. The tank has just finished cycling and things are bedding in well so the livestock has been re added this week, I am hopefully going to take some new pictures today and get these posted later on. For those who want to know my spec it's:

Juwel Trigon 190L bow front corner
28wX2 T5high light + 2X20w T8 + all reflectors
Internal bioflow filter + fluval 405 filter
Not started Co2 up yet( not had time)
Sera fertiliser
Root tabs
Sera fertilising substrate (base)
Very fine gravel

Livestock

Blue neons
Glowlight tetras
Widow tetra
Phantom tetras
Harlequins ( 1 left others died during move)
Bamboo shrimp

Plants
Taxyphiellium barbieri
Java moss
Bolbitis
Hygrophillia polysperma
Hygrophillia rosanervig
Ludwiga repens
Elodea densa
Aponogetum crispus
Bacipa monnerii
Sagittaria nations
Ludwiga mullerti
Vallisneria
Nymphea stellata
Cryptocoryne ciliata

Probably a few I've missed out but that's the main bulk of plants.

Like I said hopefully get some pics up today for you all, any questions or comments always welcome
 
As promised pics from today, like I said it's bedding in at the minute so growth a bit sporadic due a trim in some parts and bit grown enough in others comments please

Sorry some of the pictures are a bit poor didn't have much time will get some better snaps in the next few days, comments and criticism welcome cheers
 
Cheers, bamboo shrimp is the latest addition hoping to get some more soon!!
 
Wow cheers everyone thanks so much for the comments, hopefully keep this thread alive and keep you all posted on how things are moving along would anyone change anything, there are a few places where moss will be added but I ran out so I'm waiting until the rest needs a cut and use the trimmings from this to fill it in
 
Love your bamboo shrimp, he is so red! He must be very happy, amazing tank, looks stunning!

Yeah, it's good to see.

Well I'm in the process of setting up three new tanks, and I'll tell you, if my aquascaping gets anywhere near yours, I will be very happy. Where do you buy your plants from?
 
Mainly get them off www.thegreenmachineonline.com i pop in store as there not far from me but delivery is superb and money back guarantee if there not the best plants you've ever bought, they are the masters of aquascaping trust me James Findley is amazing and such a nice bloke very very helpful,

Wow cheers for your comments really appreciate it! What have you got in mind for yours?
