Awesome picture of the tiger shrimp above. You make me want to get a couple for myself!

Your tank looks good, but I think the additional plants and shapes over took away some of that hardscape "flare" and organizational focus that was previously there. The left side of the driftwood looks fantastic with the new moss growth on it though.

Love the new pic! That is some great growth you got going on there. What settings/setup did you change with the new pic? It's a lot brighter and clearer.

I think the stems in the back kinda took away from the scape too, I am thinking about planting all of each sp. in one bunch instead of spreading it out as it is and maybe that will help it. The moss is really taking off! I am seeing lots of new sprouts all over!

YzMxer99,,,, the only difference is the addition of the background stems and the black backdrop which I think is keeping the lights from flooding all over. Camera settings and all are the same.

That`s a lovely looking tank. Good luck with the Marsilea foreground. I am currently trying to grow one with some Marsilea crenata I found hiding amongst my Echinodorus tenellus.

Well I removed the stems out back cause it didn't turn out as good as I imagined it.

I was suggested Eleocharis Acicularis for background plant by a well respected scaper and think he might be on to something. Any other suggestions?


Picture shows the umbrosum there but it has been moved as well, I left the umbrosum thinking maybe it was the leaves of the Rotala/Didiplis standing out in the scape but the umbrosum does as well.
