That is Java Moss. I tried a type of grass once but it didn't work, so I thought of making a soft Meadow out of Java Moss which is much easier .
It's a fast grower if there was enough light on the tank!

An update:
I have removed the Rotalas, and added more Java Fern rocks.....







All I have to do now is wait for the Java Fern to fill in more denser...
any ideas?

Looks better, Jassar. Checked out your website - understand that you've a Siamese Algae Eater (SAE)... My question is, how hv you grown your moss so successfully with that fish around? I've never been able to cultivate moss well at all and because of this, I want to get rid of my SAEs. Unfortunately, they're very difficult to catch...

Nice scape but... I don't want to be rude but your tank is way to small to keep adult angel fish...

Tankman, my SAE is kinda used to Java Moss, which is good news to me ..but I advice you to keep yours, it's a way too usefull fish to fight algae.
Mellonman, it's ok man, no rudeness there , as a matter of fact I agree with you and I don't advice anyone to keep Angels in tanks smaller than 55G...but I have had these Angels since they were small, so they are happy in this tank ( untill someday I start up a bigger one )...

Thanks davis for the nice comment!

Regards, Jassar

I like the different colours of brownish/redish crypts plants and the red lilies and the green all arounds the tank. A better scape now.
