Aquarium Advice Addict
A bit of self-indulgent retrospection. I've been using a blue plate to highlight plant specimens when I take photos of them ex situ for the last year and I was going through my folders and thought I'd throw them up here. Mods please move this if it should be in the Photography section but I thought it was more appropriate to post it here. Looking at these pics makes me wonder if I shouldn't be using a blue background in my tank instead of a black one.
Cryptocoryne wendtii "Green Gecko" showing perfect colors:
A big huge wad of Cryptocoryne wendtii "Tropica":
HC - Hemianthus callitrichoides - one of the carpet plants that has always given me fits. Does not like hard water
Sort of an ugly pic of of large bunch of Cyperus helferi. It looks so much better in the water.
A massive bunch of Ammania sp. "Bonsai" right after harvest. Another one that looks much better in the water.
A pic of all of my pruning tools that I thought looked kind of neat:
A gargantuan sword that threatened to outgrow even my 125G (let this be a warning ):
An oval mirror to which I had hair-netted a field of Riccia fluitans. That stuff grows anywhere
Well, I hope I haven't wasted too much of your bandwidth
