Part 1 of my IAPLC / SAAC video shows how I constructed the hardscape made of seiryu stone and dragon wood. I am incredibly honoured to have ranked 1st in the South African Aquascaping Contest, judged by the master Juan Puchades and rank #574 in the IAPLC !
Stay tuned for more content on this scape, as I have many more things to share !

What a beautiful scape. Each time I see the results of aquascaping contest, I just got the feeling that it somehow random, one of the judges in the latest IAPLC, selected one aquascape as it's best work, but its ranking something above 50!!?? So just wondering how this make sense, to me it doesn't. How this aquarium not at least in the first hundreds

Thank you - I also wonder sometimes. This year is very controversial and I believe some tanks should have made it in. Interesting you say it as Juan Puchades, judge of SAAC also said he thinks it should be in top 100. But I believe many other tanks are great that didn’t make it… so it’s always a big topic of debate. Either way enjoy the process and I try not to get too attached to the number 🙏 Thank you for your kind words and appreciating my work

Was there a lot of carbonate hardness increase and how did u manage it

@richardcunliffe 10 ай бұрын

Nice! It bugs me when the iaplc ranks high for hardscape rather than plants, given its name, but in this case I think the overall look would improve if we could see more of all the work we see in the video. Very cool lines. Subbed! Loving your other work too

@scaping.architect 10 ай бұрын

Thank you! Yes I completely agree with you. My biggest mistake is hiding all the hardscape with plants ! This year I will improve. Thank you for your support !
