Hello to everyone in aquascaping world. I've been searching the net and came across to your site. I'm glad to have found it! I will be starting a planted tank soon and need all the information and suggestions on how to succeed in it.

Hi and welcome

Well - start with not filling water in it. Thats the best start in my opinion.
Try to look for something you like - see the AGA/ADA aquascaping contest pictures or something, or look at the showcase here.

Its a good start to copy something. Of course read the magazine as well. Many good photos there as well.

Then start planning how to do it and ask for help in the aspiring aquascapers section.
