Looks nice. Would like to see pictures with the new background plants. :P

I never got any real background plants in..... just the tenellus.

the moss has grown out some and it looks like I as sold something other then the requested weeping moss from a few members here and PT so I will have to re-do some of the tank. Don't you just hate it when someone doesn't know what they are dealing with....I even posted the common name and the scientific name just to keep the confusion to a min.

Here are some pictures of the tank I took today....you can see that there are two different types of moss in the tank and the moss on the branch on the right has lifted itself off.

Also the Boraras merah that were in there did not like life too much and they jumped out so I got new fishies for the tank....

nice little new fishes! I'd also like to have these in my 6g, but they'll probobly eat my shrimps...
But don't you think they'll also jump out of the tank, isn't it better to have a bottom living fish, lite Otocinclus or dwarf Corydoras? I'd never have a fish who lives in the top of the tank if had it open like you....

For some reason when I bought them they were mid-level and in my tank they stay about mid-level as well. Sometimes they go to the top but I don't see them jumping out anytime soon and hope they don't.

I don't really want to do Otocinclus or corydoras cause they do better in groups and since this tank is pretty small it wouldn't be any better then having the jumping fish in the tank.

well i love the way the moss grows in your tank. somehow it create a wild effect on the tank. try to introduce more lights or shift the lighting to the front so that the glosso will have enough lighting and therefore it will grows side ways ...

The foreground is actually minuta and the non planted parts actually have some thriving and the driftwood is shading those areas.
