Wow, I really like the corydora. Heheh, really cool looking.

Amazing tank; this is one of the tanks that really inspire me and awe me. Keep up the awesome work!
P.S. Btw, what type of moss is that attached to the driftwood?

The only thing that I could POSSIBLY criticize is that I wish I could see the Ludwigia and Amania a bit better from the front.....it just barely "peeks" out from behind the hardscape.

Otherwise, this is one of the best tanks I have seen! Great job!
