Final pics of tank before it gets destroyed.

Gang is there any online plant sales that sell glosso? Does it ship well?

I would love to get that as a ground cover plant...

Any suggestions. I can tell that NONE of my LFS probably even heard of the stuff let alone get it nor have it...LOL:rolleyes:

THanks...

Wish my crypts looked like yours..... My leaves just don't curl up like yours do shift... I am so jealous...ARGGGG.....:rolleyes:

Also maybee this will work for your move... "wrap the tank is about 40 pounds of bubble wrap and then get a forklift to move it to your new house":D Or build the new house around the tank where it stands right noW! LOL... NOT FUNNY

Man I hate to see anyone have to tear down a tank that looks that good!!!! Its a shame...I remember when I had to tear down my 55 to move it 20 feet from the living room to the dining room. I cried the entire time while my wife sat there saying" AH QUIT CRYING YOU BIG BABY:( " Whats up with that!!! Doesn't anyone feel what we feel for our tanks.....

Man I spot a speck of algae and I almost fall over of a heart atack. At least thats what I have been told? BLahhhhhh....

Spank...

I wanted to ask how did you get those pictures so good?And I too would like to know what are the ground cover plants? I would like to get some.Thanks!
 
:( ...that's like rubbing paint thinner across a piece of artwork, man. but you can rebuild it. you have the technology. you can make it better, stronger,... it's been a long day. sorry about your loss.
 
Thanx

Thanks to all, for the great words. This tank is proof that you really dont need to actually know what you are doing to have a decent planted tank. I know what it takes to have a good planted tank but dont really understand some of it (like nutrients). I just do what the guru's on this page tell me to do, and it comes out well. It is a learning experience for sure.

Thanks to ALL GURU's. ;)

I will be replanting it as soon as I get it in place at the new hosue.
I am really scared of an algae outbreak once I get it back in place. I will just dose as usual and crank the Co2. Hopefully, everything will pick up where it left off.

To take pictures, I turn off all lights in the room. I only take pics at night. as there are alot of windows in my tank room. Next, I turn off the flash on my digital camera. I rely on the light in my hood to supply enough illumination for the pic. This works well for me. Also, it helps to have a digital camera, as you can refine your method and not have to spend money on film, or wait on the pics to come back from the developer.

I bought a single clump of the Glossostigma in the beginning. It arrived dead. Some of the roots still looked ok, so I planted them. It came back strong. This stuff is very resilient and grows fast if you meet its requirements.
