Hi-tech 160 planted

I started this aquarium Jan 16th'08. I will try to create a Takashi Amano style aquascape. Most of the knowledge, on how to run such a set-up, I got from the plant guru Tom Barr, by researching his site and archives over at the always helpful www.barrreport.com

Big Time for Update!

This tank has changed it self :-) I didn't have much time to maintain it and this is what happens!
The Pogostemon helferi pushed out the HC (grew over it + some HC which became too tick floated up).
Photo taken after I removed the P. helferi mountain ;-);

Later on I took the Hygro Rosanervig out and planted Hygro difformis instead. I also added a few stems of Alternanthera reinecki (red plant). Acicularis grass and P.helferi became the main foreground plants, accompanied with some Blyxa japonica and a strange carnivorous plant Utricularia sp.
