Hi!

I'm Art now from Houston but originally from Miami.

I've been involved with the planted aquarium hobby for many years. My passion for planted aquariums pre-dates today's Internet (yes, I'm old). I got my start when I saw The Planted Aquarium book from Dupla on a LFS shelf. The rest is history.

Oh, I also imported Aqua Design Amano into the US, started Aquatic Plant Central, had a little podcast called ScapeFu and several other passion projects involving the planted aquarium hobby. The latest of which is this long-term project, ScapeCrunch.

Welcome and I hope you find ScapeCrunch to be a friendly and dynamic place for you to share you passion for planted aquariums with others who are just as passionate. The goal is to serve you and make this site valuable to YOU. Please lean in, engage and make suggestions on how we can improve.

Looking forward to seeing you on the forum.

Best,

Art
 
Thanks, will do, and wish you best of luck with the forum, I hope it would be the place where all aquascapers and planted tanks hobbyists meet and share their ideas and projects

Hi, my name is Omid and I've been dabbling in planted tanks since 2016 (kinda). I've received a lot of help, great advice, and awesome plants from many hobbyists over the years and looking forward to give back.

Thanks to Art for setting up this forum.

Hey Omid good to see you here.....hopefully you share your recent nature scape sometime!;)
 
Art,

Wow, it’s been a long time huh? Many years ago when Art stepped away from APC I became the admin. That was a fun few years. I dropped away from the hobby and only got back to it about a month ago. I’m back at it with a 180g planted tank and a 46g bow front that is planted in a very low-tech sort of way. Happy to be aboard here.

Hey Bryce! Nice to have you back with the hobby and the forums!
 
Hey all, nice to be here with many familiar faces. It's great to see some other APCers from the good old days. I was very active back then as houseofcards. I was also one of the first moderators on aquascapingworld when John N launched it. Glad to see others have a livelong obsession with this great hobby.

Thanks Art for setting this up.
