Wow, that's amazing....I'm in LA...maybe I should drop by?

Haha, kidding!

SCAPE did, go join them.
Southern CA Aquatic plant society.
And they will be going back BTW.

SCAPE put up some pics on line.
See the PT forum's thread.

I am looking forward to some good pics, but I know it takes a little while for the plants to fill in nice and get all the variables under control. Beter yet, how about a webcam! I know, probably wont happen but it would be pretty neat.

The owner is putting one on so he can watch the fish when he's not there to see about behavioral issues.

That's a good idea about the webcam. That's a really awesome setup. The stocking list is very impressive as is the overall tank and design. Looking forward to seeing more pics, especially once the fish get in there. Thanks for sharing, I think I'll go check out the PT thread now.

Here's an update, 24 Altums, all eating well, 30 Discus. Never got the HC growing well, switching to Utricularia grass.

I'm not going down there for another month or two, I'm redoing an office tank for the same client, he's swapping a 150 gal for 300 gal for the office.
This is not my photo but one the client sent.

Absolutely stunning! Beautiful work Tom! :thm:

Where does a person get 24 juvenile Altums?
(if those aren't juveniles than those are the biggest discus I've ever seen)
