Hello. Up to now I've mostly concerned myself with creating a healthy, algae-free environment in my tank for my numerous plants to thrive. Well, 1 year, adoption of EI methodology, pressurized CO2 and countless hours scouring such forums has given me the confidence to turn my attention to aquascaping.
Here is my tank as it currently stands.

For starters, I know the temple on the left is overgrown, and I will cut it back, but I'd still like to anchor that side of the tank with it. The lone temple plant on the right behind the driftwood can go, but I'm not sure what to do with that side (I have some foxtail I'd like to use, but it has to grow out quite a bit, first). That's rotala indica in the middle back, behind the driftwood, and bacopa and moneywort on the right (I'll keep that trimmed from getting too high). Those foreground plants to the right of the temple will be moved to a low tech 5 gallon I'm starting, but I'm just letting them grow out there for now. Oh yeah, the floating water sprite should be ignored, as well.
Also, I sadly killed off my school of black neons and a dwarf gourami with a CO2 accident, so if you have suggestions on a replacement school (rasboras?), and/or show fish (if necessary) that would be appreciated, too. I'm thinking cory cats on the bottom (though I had trouble keeping them alive in the past; I believe the DG stressed them out too much). My golden kuhlii loaches are not surprisingly staying quite hidden.
