I was unable to get the rotala rotundifolia and E. tenellus I wanted for this tank in time for the contest so I've finally just improvised with what I can get right now. Comments, observations, suggestions welcome. The stem plants I just put in today so I want to work with them in this layout for a little while. I hope to be able to replace the stems with what I want at some point.


Clean glass probably would help to, but the hygro is a little under the weather from sitting at the lfs all week. When I get some growth I'll post another better picture.

Not to shabby. I like it. I think Rotala rotundifolia would look nice replacing the anacharis in the back. Or maybe when the Java Fern in the front gorws out longer leaves, that could go in the back, and a nice midground foreground plant in front.

It's hard to tell from the pic, but I think that's some sort of moss on the front left. Not sure how I like that in contrast to the background plants directly in back of it at the moment. Maybe when the background plants grow out, it would add the depth it seems to be missing on that section. Other than that it looks nice.

Lastly something short needs to hide a part of the hardscape in the middle. Sort of like what you magically done with the back rock. Very nice!
