    Feito. Parabéns pelo tópico e pela foto final!
  6. Parabens a todos os participantes, com especial foco nos nossos membros @ismael_figueira @Joao Pinheiro e @Luís Cardoso
  7. Olá @ricardo gomes. O Eheim Liberty 75 é um bom filtro de cascata mas dependendo do hardscape e da fauna que tenhas podes ser curto para fazer um bom trabalho. Eu acho que filtragem nunca é demais, num nano para essa litragem eu apostava num Eheim 2211 ou equivalente de outra marca sobretudo porque tem muito mais espaço para colocar material biológico.
  8. Não sabia que ainda havia monárquicos aqui nas lides aquariofilicas (acho que inventei uma palavra nova 🤪) Que bem sabe ler um texto desta grandeza numa época em que as frases são curtas e muitas das vezes sem sentido! Cá espero pelas novidades que daí virão.
  9. Seja feita a sua vontade! Bastava pedires 😁
  10. Ele não compra nada de aquariofilia hoje em dia. Pagam-lhe para usar os produtos deles! Estudasses!!! 😆😆😆
  11. Eu acho mais fiável os testes líquidos. Eu sou fã dos da JBL mas há outras marcas igualmente boas.
  12. Cortando os caules maiores.
  13. Que bom podermos acompanhar os teus trabalhos aqui. Uma questão, não devias ter uma planta com altura para aparecer por detrás da pedra grande?

  15. Não encontras porque não existe! Desta vez os organizadores do concurso não acharam necessário criar aqui um tópico...
  16. Parabéns @João Branquinho por teres criado este fórum do qual emergiu esta enorme comunidade que ao longo destes 20 anos se juntou à volta do hobby que tanto amamos. Mas os agradecimentos são também extensivos a todos os membros que fizeram do fórum o maior ponto de encontro da aquariofilia nacional. É verdade que hoje não estamos com o mesmo movimento de outros tempos mas enquanto tiveres vontade de manter isto a funcionar, houver malta interessada em manter a maquina em funcionamento e houver membros que nos procurem para esclarecimento de duvidas ou para mostrar o que tem em casa, o fórum qual dinossauro digital, manterá as portas abertas. Abraço a todos!
  17. Está descansado que ninguém até hoje foi desclassificado por mostrar a evolução de um plantado! E obrigado por não fazeres parte do rebanho que por medos infundados acaba por esconder os seus trabalhos! Se há motivos para desclassificar, o primeiro será certamente o nome do bicho!!! Deve ser um caso de rebeldia tardia! 🤭 Não tarda vais andar é a fazer montagens com nomes como Gör plats för Noddy 😆😆😆
  18. Acredita que é! Mais do que as pontuações, a oportunidade de receber conselhos vindos dos que mais percebem disto é fabuloso. Eu podia dizer tanta coisa que me dá retorno mas vou só deixar isto aqui:
  19. E finalmente temos a classificação dada pelos nossos prestigiados Juízes e mais importante, os seus comentários que muito vão ajudar os nossos aquascapers a melhorar as usas montagens. Segue então as fotos enviadas por cada aquascaper e respectivas avaliações e comentários : João Abóbora 60 I like the fish and most plant choices, it just feels like it needs more time; probably because the tank is young and these species are slow. I would also try to make the main rock less square with us the viewer. Steven Chong 43 Equipment science and love You have to keep motivated Hootan Maftoonian 70 Matthew Manes 40 For this aquarium I would advise other types of plants, some of the selected ones are too large for such a small aquarium, and I would also choose a better time to take the photograph, the water looks a bit cloudy. Balbi Vaquero 25 Michal Adamek Total Score:238 João Pedro Palma 70 I love the foreground and midground plant choices, and you've done an awesome job with those crypts in such a short time. This could be a very nice old-school-style Nature scape, triangled top right back down to bottom front left corner. Need some more strong wood work though along that axis, and the anubias should be swapped out for some tape like plants. I would go with some crinim, along with Eriocaulon feather duster and maybe some val nana for something like that. Steven Chong 58 it is so beautiful I like this tank overall It is necessary for photography, such as removing the equipment and cleaning the glasses Hootan Maftoonian 74 Matthew Manes 50 I would have liked to see something more of a hardscape, in aquariums with such little time for the development of the plants it is always better to start from a good structure, since time is limited and the plants are not fully developed, but surely in a few months it will be a totally different aquarium Balbi Vaquero 20 Michal Adamek Total Score: 272 Bruno Carvalho 70 It's pretty clear to see the intent behind this layout, but the upward angling rocks need a bit more finesse, need a bit more work to have the right size for impact and a sense of leaning or fitting to something to keep them in position. They feel a bit unnatural now. It also looks like the scaper wasn't able to grow anything in their shadow effectively. Choosing plant placement is important-- I recommend Susswassertang to layouters who have a dark spot where nothing else will grow. Steven Chong 51 This tank needed more time Hootan Maftoonian 75 Matthew Manes 55 You can really see intention and I appreciate the details of the hardscape, but you should be more careful with pruning, the bunch of rotala as it is takes away a lot, I would advise choosing a better time to take the picture in the future. Balbi Vaquero 25 Sadly, too fresh aquarium. In a couple of months it could look much cleaner. Michal Adamek Total Score: 276 Ricardo Correia 74 All the elements are there, I think this work just needs a bit more time to grow in. One reason it might feel less developed despite all layouts having the same time is that there is a bit too much rock, a bit too little space committed to plants; which you really need in styles dependent on stem plants. A bit too many rocks, and a bit too little contrast in rock size have an effect of making a layout feeling "stuffed" or under-planted. Steven Chong 65 A good work It would be more beautiful if the rotalas were higher You should be more careful about the size of the plants and their placement in the plan Hootan Maftoonian 80 This one can be beautiful but it's lack of execution, also it need more time for plants to grow most specially the stem plants. Congratulations Matthew Manes 72 A very well planned aquarium I really like the hardscape, but it lacks time for the development of the plants. Balbi Vaquero 45 Aquascape is much too symmetrically arranged. I miss the depth. Congratulations to Otocinclus for being the master of the third plan. Michal Adamek Total Score: 316 Vasco Ferreira 80 Quite the interesting work! I like the "speed" the Utricularia give with their direction, and it's heightened by the angles of the rocks. It gives me ideas for how to do a stream-themed aquascape in a small aquarium like this. That said, while the plants are looking great, the rocks do not feel well incorporated to the work-- a bit too clean and stark white. Since I think I see some algae in the Utricularia, maybe the rocks were scrubbed a bit too much? Anyway, some better contrast of small and big rocks, and use of shadows would also help in composition and in blending rock/plants together. Sharper fragments would also better improve the feeling of "speed." Steven Chong 66 It is natural and beautiful It conveys a very good feeling The height of soil is high in the foreground. Congratulations Hootan Maftoonian 81 Plants are healthy and I love the stone but you need to study more on hardscape, congratulations Matthew Manes 65 Nice aquarium I always like to see an Iwagumi, good selection of plants, but I miss a more delicate work on the lines of the rocks, in some parts the structure lacks harmony, nothing that cannot be easily fixed. Congrats!!! Balbi Vaquero 25 Very poor photo. If one would work on the shooting technique it would be definitely better. Sadly a bad shape of the plants. Michal Adamek Total Score: 317 André Batista 75 Nice overall composition. I think the wood is a bit too fluffy-- like a stuffed animal's arm. I like Susswassertang as a plant, but for this you really want a true moss. Also not covering all wood, but bits with good balance. Making all the rocks smaller might add scale as well. Steven Chong 63 It is beautiful, I know very well that the jungle tank is difficult to maintain Hootan Maftoonian 78 Matthew Manes 68 Very good work, it is seen that there is a lot of work on the details, the only thing to highlight is that the moss is too wild, it would need a bit of trimming. Balbi Vaquero 35 Forest scape, too bad the plants weren't trimmed more. It does not look like a wild jungle or forest. Sadly very chaotic Michal Adamek Total Score: 319 Tozé Nunes 84 What interesting rocks with wonderful texture… overall the plants look to be in good shape for the time the layout's been up as well. I think there needs to be more dedication to heighten the main elements though. The big stone on the left takes too much weight/space when it is the main rock on the right side that needs to be the focus. Other rocks need shadows and break up of negative spece in order to make the main rock really the focus. Steven Chong 62 I like this hardscape , keep it up, you made a beautiful tank Hootan Maftoonian 84 Composition wise but plants is not healthy and need more time to grow, also avoid the soil to make visible on white sand, congratulations Matthew Manes 60 Nice tank, it needs a bit of time to be the way it should be... As a tip, I would keep the sand in the front a bit finer, especially on the left side. Balbi Vaquero 40 Beautiful composition of rocks in the foreground. The only thing missing was the rocks in the background. It would have created a beautiful depth. Michal Adamek Total Score:330 Carlos Carvalheira 80 A wonderful little Nature Aquarium. I think this would be strengthened with greater contrast in rock sizes. Right now all rocks are in the same range of size, but small pebbles are needed to make big rocks BIG, and the big focal rock(s) should be bigger. This will give you better contrast and scale. Steven Chong 70 The quality of the plants is good. I like this nano tank. You could write a romantic ending to your story Hootan Maftoonian 82 Plants is in good condition but I think it need more time to grow better for the stem plants. One thing I noticed plants must be equal if you have in the left it must be on the right also additional moss on rock would be nice additional details too. Congratulations Matthew Manes 75 A really healthy aquarium, and a great photograph, but it lacks time to be as it should, but I would love to see this aquarium in about three months, it is a very nice aquarium Balbi Vaquero 65 Plants could be trimmed more frequently. A near-classical arrangement. Enjoyable looking scape. Michal Adamek Total Score: 372 Vera Santos 87 If the contest was just a demonstration of skills, I think this layout would be the clear number 1. Use of space front to back left and right, use of contrasting sizes of rocks, use of proportion and scale, even light and shadow contrast… even the refinement of the foreground sand and plant trimming, it all demonstrates the layouter's skill. To reach the next level though, you need more of an expression of emotion. Make the judges go-- "hoh.. interesting..." I think one easy improvement is to fix the fact that right now everything has about the same light-dark balance, which actually makes it feel flat. Every individual piece of the work looks great, but in total it feels flat because there's no clear bright place in the midground. The other thing is that the father stone needs to be handsome, with some minor bright details that show a "face" even in the shadow portion. Without this , the most important stone also feels flat. Overall, an excellent scape that shows the layouter's advanced skills. Steven Chong 83 I like the combination of light and shadow in this work The choice of fish can be better Also, Anubias on the right side was not suitable for this design, it is very beautiful in general Hootan Maftoonian 86 When you look at clearly the details is amazing but some area is too messy, you need to practice more on trimming your stem plants to grow more beautiful and be bushy. Congratulations Matthew Manes 85 Incredible way to use the space available in this small aquarium, I can say little more about this aquarium, nothing that time won't fix, really a very nice aquarium. congrats!! Balbi Vaquero 65 At the same time mysterious and peaceful work! Very well executed aquascape Michal Adamek Total Score:406 Ricardo Galante 78 Health plants, good refinement of elements of lines-- there is a lot to find admirable in this scape. But in composition, I think you need to commit firmly to being a directional triangle scape, or Convex Brazilian-influenced. Also all rocks being the same size affects the layout's scale, depth, impact. Overall though, great work. Steven Chong 77 Its beautiful The end part needed a little more attention, the reflection on the sides has been used beautifully Hootan Maftoonian 87 I love how the plants grow here but I don't like how the moss placement it didn't integrate to the layout and the stone placement is too messy. I don't see any good flow and you need to put some plants on the sand to create details then you must add fauna on the scape, and you need some trimming on the stem plants at the back. Congratulations Matthew Manes 70 Clean and healthy, that would be a good way to describe this aquarium, very good selection of plants, perhaps the back would need a little more time to achieve the desired effect. Congratulations, it's a very nice aquarium. Balbi Vaquero 95 This layout gives a pleasant feeling of peace. It's nice to see a photo that doesn't have artificially saturated colors. An insanely well executed nano aquascape. Really good job! Congratulations. Michal Adamek Total Score:407 Kire Hajba 88 I think this layout best demonstrates the core of what we want to see from high level layouts-- a strength of presentation, drama, emotional presence. There is a use of composion, of shadows and lines, of front and back, that shows a high awareness of the craft. The layout does need more refinement, and a bit more effective use of negative space in the midground, and trimming the Pinnatifida into a more "trained" state would really elevate the work. Importantly though, it presents itself in the form of a finished work, and that itself is important in a contest. Steven Chong 76 This work shows the creativity of working with wood But the selection of plants and the size of plants for this design could be better. Hootan Maftoonian 90 Beautiful nature style, I love the shadow of this scape and plants are very healthy but still there's many things needs to improve, first the composition is not too visible, next you need to add more plants on the ground,finnatifida is too messy you need to trim it, also I noticed I don't see any present of faunas Matthew Manes 80 Incredible the good evolution of this work really well used the measure of the aquarium, it lacks some order but taking in consideration the time they have been really healthy. Balbi Vaquero 85 Great space management skills in a nano aquarium. Good shadow ratio. It would be worth trimming hygrophila pinnatifida more often, it should have smaller leaves, in this particular case. Michal Adamek Total Score: 419 Rodolfo Provenzano 83 In a contest between Portuguese aquascapers, I expected to see some strong examples showing influence from the Brazilian style, and wasn't disappointed. This is probably the strongest of that style, with excellent composition, proportions, and good refinement of plants and sand. I think the easy points for improving the work would be (1) to better tweak the rock angles to get some shadows-- right now it's all flat tone, with no dark/light use. (2) Use a zig-zag path instead of a straight one. If the sane path zigged left into where the Dow-noi is and the right and then left again, the layout would have much more movement and dynamism; that movement is what's needed to creat the IMPACT of the Brazilian style. Steven Chong 88 The stones are carefully and beautifully worked It has given good depth to the work, more shadow could have made the work more professional. Congratulations, it is very beautiful and I admire it Hootan Maftoonian 94 I really love this tank it gives me a tranquility feeling, the plants is also healthy, the choice of fish and position complement the whole idea, congratulations to the autor Matthew Manes 90 A very well structured work, and with very good forecast in the times of growth in the plants. To highlight above all how well played the reflexes are without a doubt they give another dimension to the tank. Congratulations, it is a beautiful aquarium! Balbi Vaquero 75 Photo taken with a very wide angle lens, but still an impressive layout nonetheless. Beautiful reflections. I would say that Scaper managed to achieve a good depth illusion. Bravo!
