It's a nightmare to photograph these..

Hi guys,

These are designer tanks from Italy by Curvet.

The unique feature is the bended glass and gives interesting distortion when viewing the aquarium.

Can you imagine trying to get a picture of your fishes or your aquascape there?

Cheers,

Benny,

Where was that ?. Do you have more pictures from this convention ?

[benny]

Hi Jay,

The picture was also taken in Aquarama 2003. Was held in Singapore during October.

Have loads of pictures. Here's some ..

Eheim has discontinued the previous Ecco series and replaced them with 2232, 2234 and 2236.

They have a really nice booth.

A very stylish 0.52 L CO2 cylinder. Wouldn't be out of place in an ADA setup.

Need to keep the planted tank cool during summer and don't want to get a chiller?

UV light driver by air. No more messy hose connections!

More to come...

Tanks with solid wood carpentery and realistic back and foreground.

Rows and rows of bargain waiting for the show to be open to public.

And the madness when the public came to shop.

A celebrity. Can anyone guess who he is? Hint: Think discus.

Of course the glowfish was there too.

Actually, I think this will be a serious challenge to aquatic photographers. It's almost impossible to get a good picture.

Latest aquascaping techniques..?

HOT new product from Japan. This CO2 diffusor produced ultra tiny bubbles that you will think it's not working. And it looks good too!

That's all folks!

[JerseyJay]

Wow. Great stuff.

- CO2 Aluminum bottle is what I need in the future. My 5lbs tank is kind of heavy.

- Jack Watley - The Discus Man

- I worked on DIY Background myself, which actually turned out to be a good project. Back you can't beat Back-To-Nature or Pangea

See my background here.

WOW Jay!

Your background is unbelievable! I wouldn't have believed it's DIY till I saw the pictures.

Thanks for sharing!

That is REALLY cool, thank you!!

[ccplim]

Benny, did you saw those that they built "into" it as a part of the coffee table? That would be quite a challange too!

[Molino]

Thanks for sharing all those photos Benny.
That convention looks amazing!

Glad you found them interesting.

It's not too bad. The lights are mounted at the side. So you can put the flash anywhere on the table and lie flat to shoot your fishes. But you are going to need a lot of space around it! [smilie=biggrin.gif]

You wpuld think the cars would rust. Benny do you know of a link so I could see if a show like that comes near me?

[benny]

I'm sure the cars will rust. It's just a silly setup to get attention at the show.

As for shows in New York, I'm not too sure. You are probably better off browsing through the American forums or flipping through TFH.

Cheers,

Cool pics benny. Looks like it would be a blast to attend.

[luvfishies]

Wow, now that is what I call a convention! Very snazzy, indeed!
