Here's the link to a short gallery of my 55 and stock. Ignore the moss on the bottom, I'll be tying it onto the driftwood soon. Also, got a couple of java ferns and other plants coming in this week! What do you guys think? I know I'm no ADA master but I'm honestly really proud with how it looks. I was so tired of the tacky gravel and fake plants/decor thing.

Amazing. I love the darkness vs. Light. Makes the fish pop.

Nice work! I like the hardscape. Honestly, I would leave some of the moss there, and try to make a moss carpet, I think it would look really effective!

K guys, I think I'm done. Here's the finished product!!!



I followed no "rules" of aquascaping.. Just had this vision in my head for the longest time, and I'm really proud of how it came out. Hope you guys like it!!

It's not if we like it but if you like it. I love it. I wanted my tank to look somewhat like that, with the black sand and black background but now I can't even see the floor of the tank. Dwarf hair grass took off. I'm still happy with it though. You did a great job. May you have many long, enjoyable nights in front of that beautiful tank.

VERY NICE!

I really like he simple it started out, and how those two anchor pieces dressed out with the plants. Really good job. Thanks for sharing it.
