Thanks matey. Here's a short clip of the tank. It's not fully grown in, and given time, it'd be a bit more substantial at the back http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e_7_nvhsgNM

Cheers Ian. Me to! i'm really excited about it actually. Here's an image, after moving the tank away from the wall. The wall lights up nice now.

well, this might be the end of this tank. I have to take it to the Telford Aquatic show this coming week, to be featured on the 'Tropica' stand. Transportation is just about sorted, but if it's too much hassle bringing it back in one piece, i may rip it down and start again, with a new...

The flower, now opening up.... in situ shot.

good info lljdma, thanks. After 2 days, the flower has started to open up...

Cheers guys and gals. Stu, it's garden edging. A plastic, which can be cut and is great to hold back substrate. There's a steep incline and it's still intact due to the barrier. Steveo. The gravel cost me just £2.50 for a big bag. Garden centers have their uses. Hi Liz. Yes the stones are...
