Wow! I just scrolled back to the first post and you have made amazing progress w/ this tank.

It looks great. I love the groupings of stems in the back--looks like it's almost time for a trim. Will be interested to see how that works out and if it changes much.

The front is looks a bit unruly but I like how you have it sloping down from the sides towards the center.

So lush and thick! You might try to trim the foreground so the plants are away from the glass. Some take a flat blade and cut downwards about 1/2" from the front glass and pull the plants out. It has a nice effect.

Loving this tank!

I prefer the black background, it makes the fish "pop" more.

keep up the great work!
