Default 10 Gal Tanks...Examples?

I want to see everyone's 10 gal fish tanks.. Please tell me what types of plants you are using. I currently have a 10 gal fish tank with fancy guppies. I have taiwan moss on the left side and right side along the the glass. I have microsword going along the back wall. In the middle of the tank I have 3 rocks with taiwan moss in the middle of them.. I will try to get some pics for you guys.. But I would like to see what others have done with such a small tank

Here's what I've got currently:



I just got a bunch of new plants, so I'm letting everything grow out before I attempt to really scape it. This is with 35W of PC lighting, and DIY co2. I fertilize with the EI system.

I'm also interested in other's 10G pics... I'm cuious what others have done with the space (or lack thereof). Personally, I've been choosing mainly small leaved plants to make the tank feel a little bigger.
