Iwagumi.

[Dave Spencer]

Here are one or two pics of my Iwagumi and its Rasbora Dorsiocellata.

This one was taken three months ago before the Riccia had a chance to blend in:

This photo was taken using a light box and a remote flash:

This photo was taken about six months ago. All I did was switch the tank lights off, and use a desk top lamp shining on to a black background held six inches away from the back of the tank:

Fantastic looking pictures.

Have you got any more pictures now with the riccia blended in more?

Very nice rocks and rockwork, but it feels a little bit symmetrical with 3 larger ones on each side of the middle, it is almost like a mirror. I love the HM and would love to see a recent pic with the riccia blended and the HM with a little wilder growth. Overall lovely tank, very healthy, and very clean. Nice pictures and nice perspectives!!

Thanks for the comments people, and for the constructive criticism dasmall 1.

The growth of the Eleocharis `parvula` has been so rampant that the rocks have all but disappeared (I knew they would prove to be too small), so I decided to move the scape on. I have added some tied together wood that I have collected over the months. A small amount of Peacock moss miraculously appeared from nowhere, so I have attached to the wood.

This is purely a speculative move, and if it doesn`t work out, I shall break the tank down and start a new aquascape.

Sorry about the bubbles, but I had just done a water change
