Aquascaping

What is aquascaping? What i understand is you make landscaping inside water @ aquarium...
My simple definition...

Now..this was inspired from a Private clinic in Sungai Buloh ,Putra Medical Centre (PMC) that had a nice natural tank setup.

Now...from there i started to do 'research' on how to create aquascape.

Some of my aquascaping works.
From the start & they evolved ...

My first aquascape in a 2 1/2 footer tank with just a water pump & filter...cheapo & most basic filtering system.
The lighting even a cheap UV light...For a first timer i guess..



Then came this...in a 1 footer square tank...



 Remake of the old 2 1/2 footer..



Sad story happened to this tank...the co2 regulator got loosed...all my fished got choked my too much co2...sad day...

Next..another remake of the 2 1/2 footer tank.This one..only the process..the full picture i can't recall where i put the photos..well..just for sharing..





While i remake the 2 1/2 footer...im maintaining the 1 feet & 1 feet square tank below the bigger one..
Should have snap some photo of those two..

Now this was the remake of the 1 feet tank...

In a 1 footer tank...just a small setup with basic needs..







And this was my last tank before i scrap them all...
My last workmanship..the 2 footer...

Some close ups...


Overall view...

Now..this tank cost me RM1.7K for all the stuff....high maintenance...at last..scrap them all.

Well i guess that's all for the history of my aquascaping work..maybe can setup another tank next time...

My First Mod (PC Case)

This was my first PC Case mod. Inspired by this uncle from Penang, Taufik aka. Bombman (Lyn Forum).
He was my sifu & supplier of most of my materials & tools.
And a kid Sherren Lee (Lyn Forum) who was merely 14 years old when we met & he showed me his work...damm...
Not forgetting Lohwenli & Pmmonkey (Lyn Forum) ...little group with high dreams...

This was my dream case...
Damm nice...with all those acrylics..but can't imagine how much effort to cut them smoothly & bend those 3mm thick acrylics...so high hopes left behind since i can't afford to get the right tools to do it.

Anyhow, my target was still there...yeah..and this was the outcome..

My tool:

And the help of my dad...

I called it THE MEAN RED MACHINE..hahahaha














Maybe next time i'll come back again with a new theme...
For the time being..just stick to this...

I just can't imagine what happened to Friendster.com....all my saved pictures of the process are gone..not to say in my own storage..My hardisk kaputtt...sayang...
