These types of scapes were super popular in the 90s, and I mean everyone who had a crack at planted aquariums did it this way. Loads of colour, loads of fish movement. It was only later on in the 90s that Takashi Amano turned things round and began producing iwagumis.
Anyway, it got me thinking - I don't really see any Dutch aquariums these days and wondered if you are aquascaping one at home?

Yeah it is stunning isn’t it. I’m surprised we haven’t seen more of them around these days to be honest. But there are a stack of plants suitable for Dutch style planted aquariums and have a look at this link for more info http://www.aquaticplantcentral.com/forumapc/aquascaping/258-weekly-topic-dutch-aquarium-style.html
That is a stunning tank, Richard. Any chance you could do a post about the plants that would be suitable for a Dutch style?
