You seemed to have blended the colours extremely well. I would like to see a bigger school of Neons.

All of your plants look extremely healthy and in an excellent Aquascape.

It's a one word description "Fantastic"

The only point is I would add more Cardinals then the blue contrasting colour would highlight your plats even more.

What are you feeding the shrimps with it looks like a green leaf of ??

Not much left of the Mulberry leaves. I am sure there are many members who would like to have a set up like you have.

It only takes a few years +++ to get to that level. Its not as simple as planting a few coloured plants and calling it "A Dutch like"

Sorry for any confusion.

nicpapa is a Master of the Dutch Aquascaping it is something that was learnt over the years.

I would also like to have a tank like that in our home as well, in fact I would like to have an Aquascape at the moment but my age and health do not permit it at all.

Beautiful aquarium Nicpapa,

Have you got a plant list? I was wondering about a couple - the grass stuff at the front left - Is the helanthium tennellum (echinodorus tennellus to the old timers :) ) and in the middle of the middle row - it looks a bit like limnophila aromatic or hippodroides (don't know what the difference is between these two) which I think is at the back left. Is it pogostemon stellate or diplis diandra?

Thanks for posting up this inspiration / tank porn

All the best

Paul

What can I say other than thank you again for showing us updated photos of your beautiful coloured tank.

As soon as I saw the last photo I thought you were posting a photo of a beautiful garden flower.

Can you edit that photo and add its name please.
