The above image shows one of my creative aquascape project "Secret Shore". This is one of my favourites among the Creative Aquascapes, I have done in recent past. Unlike, Nature Aquascapes, my Creative Aquascapes are much short-lived and being prepared for the final photo session, from the first day.

What can I say? Brilliant stuff! Any advice for a fresher? Am graduating to a 3 foot tank after keeping a 1.5 footer for over 3 mths - have a koi carp pair that keeps uprooting plants - other fishes are all well behaved and love foilage. How can i keep my plants anchored and free from being uproooted? Also is natural sand better than artificial gravel for my new tank? Please advise.
Thanks & regards

Really excellent work. I am very new to the planted aqua world. It would have been more useful if you mention your substrate, tank size, light, Co2 and dosing techniques.

I am looking to do a salt water setup. The specific tank I got is the Mega Wall Fish Tank.
The wall aquarium holds about 20 gallons...maybe 18-19 after I put in 20 pounds of live sand and some live rock. One thing I want is a tall presentation. The wall fish tank measures 70" wide by 34" tall and is 5" deep.
Any ideas?

Great job!
The final pic looks sort of disappointing, not sure if its too dark or just overgrown.
Interesting setup though. I'm changing my cichlid to a planted tank soon, nice site you have here.
