Default my 18l tank

Hello,
at first I wanted to introduce myself:
I'm 18 years old and I live in Hamburg (Germany). I still go to school. My hobbies are needless to say aquaristic, fishing, drive by bike/car etc.
Please excuse my not very good English (I'll try my best!)

Okay and now my 18 l tank, which runs since 2nd january 2007.
I used only Ada Aqua soil as substrate. I fertilize with Dennerle (V30, E15 and A1).
For lightning I use a desklamp with 11Watt an 6500K.
The inhabitants are B/W- and R/W-bees.
So, I hope you like it! It's my first "aquascaping-tank"...
That picture I sent to the Ada-contest:

Yesterday before redesigning:

Yesterday after redesigning:

(The red plants in the backround have to grow a bit higher; I cut them so low because they shold have the chance to root)
Please give me any hints, what I could do better or what's very good in your Eyes.
Thank you!
Regards Timo

Hey Edwin,
here in Germany you could get them in every shop. In german onlineshops it will not be a problem to get these.
