Post by: wulfgar22 on 02 June 2015, 05:14:02 PM
I recently picked up some aquarium pieces for my Lost World:

There are a few more pics on my blog (http://ihavewroughtmysimpleplan.blogspot.co.uk/2015/06/some-lost-world-aquarium-terrain.html). The make is Rosewood and they're readily available from Pet Shops as well as Amazon.

Very good composition.

Aquarium stop, check! Now off to the baking section, Hi-oh Siliver!

Indeed. Aquarium deco provides the gamer with some excellent ready-to-play terrain. ;-)

You've got some great looking items there. I especially like the Greek ruins.

Great finds. Can I ask where the snakes are from?

Lovely pieces!  :-*  We never seem to get that lucky when we're looking through the aquarium pieces at the stores.

They look fantastic. Pieces like that are hard to find in my part of the world.

Tell me about it. Nothing half as cool as what the people on here seem to find ends up at my local pet stores.

Indeed. Canadian pet stores might as well be a barren wasteland. I've been checking regularly the last few years and never found anything that exciting. I found a small mausoleum last Halloween. No ruined temples, no Buddhas, no skull caves.

I picked some of these up after seeing your blog post. They're great!

Delighted I could be of assistance... :D

I have also bought the temple ruins you bought in the first pictures. To tie mine all together I gave them a new coat of paint

That temple complex looks perfect. Great games will be had, I'm sure.

For those of you frustrated by the local pet store's dearth of attractive items, do remember there are some great sellers (with vast selections) of aquarium scenics on e-bay. I suspect you all knew that, but still thought it worth mentioning. You know, just in case...

There's some absolutely lovely finds here. I'll have to hit up the pet shop when next I have a day off and am not elbow deep in paint!
