The Bonsai

[silurian]

HI Folks,
 
First of all apologies, not much of a journal here everything finally arrived for my tank redesign this weekend and I just dived in and got it done, totally forgot to take pics, it was like being a kid at Christmas. Im delighted with the end result and just wanted to share

Wow....
 
Did you make or buy the bonsai; it's a really lovely one! Is it real or plastic?

 

[silurian]

I did try to make one myself with some bog wood and moss, but failed so went with fake in the end Im afraid Still for a plastic one i think its very effective! And it was bought, did take me months to find that particular one, and very few folks have it in stock in the UK.

Hey, I have nothing against fake/plastic decor (I've got a tank with a lion's head sand fountain and some 'stone' arches!); if it looks good (which that one really does) and makes you happy, that's all that matters

Very beautiful tank! I would love to have a decoration like that

Looks good op. If that floats your boat don't let anyone tell you otherwise...

Fake/real, it doesn't matter much coz that looks brilliant!
 
I want one now...
 
I also like those rocks with the marbled effect...very nice!

Very nice, have to say i have never seen a fake bonsai tree for aquariums.
 
Good find!
 
And have to say your tank does indeed look very good, very well done
