    Beautiful tank! Everything looks so squeky clean, almost like you've added wax to the leaves. Very nice job :=D>

    Wow...probably the most healthy plant growth i've ever seen. You really know what your doing! I think the position of the red plants are perfect.

    Fantastic! It don't look like a tank under construction to me. I can't imagine how much better it can get than what it looks like now. Very healthy growth, and pretty close to a fully loaded Dutch style aquarium. Looking forward to its development.

    No, just "simple" glass ...

    The shots are take with a "Canon 400 D" by a friend (name "Renaud" in APC), and it is a gifted photographer ! Thanks to him !

    The shots be taken 2 months after the beginning, but I'm starting this tank this healthy plants come from my previously Aquascape.

    Thanks a lot, Roy ;)

    You probably right ... The way that the tank go in this time (2 month after the shots I have posted here) is not "so perfect" to my eyes ... So, I have to do my best to return his haughtiness in this tank!
