Positioning in Design

I Think the pictures speak for themselves, a little imagination and the ability to reimagine go along way when it comes to setting up aquascape.

It’s that time of year again the AGA Aquascaping Contest is underway  and accepting entries thur September.  It is a little late this year to get a design together but start planning for next year.  They publish the winners in November and I am always excited to see the New Designs.  I’ve posted a few winning designs from previous years here.  If you are interested in getting more information about the contest check out their website: aquatic-gardeners.org

Marie’s Tank

I know my tank is not professional or high tech like others but I think my discus really like the branches. They are currently hanging on top and I actually like it like that. Thank you very much for the additional branches.They rock!

Andy’s Tank

Andy used some simple pieces in a unique way to add interest and texture, in addition to the visual impact,  the Manzanita also help keep the PH more balanced.  The Rocks in the tank can raise the PH, while the Driftwood lowers it.  Nice Job Andy.
