Hey did you take the plastic rims off the tank or did it come like that?

Not trying to make you feel bad, but, I like the rock before it cracked. Well, still nice anyways. I have had my disappointments as well. Great job so far. Time should reveal more.

I'd say keep the stems at a minimum-- they'll only distract from those great dramatic rocks. Nice work dude.

hi!
here's how it looks today

i added a few more stems of HM to the space between the rocks


it's starting to look how i imagined it but now i want to add some Eleocharis Acicularis growing in between the HM on the sides of the aquarium and a little bit of Eleocharis Vivipara in the centre.

I really like how it looks as if the rocks are growing lichen and the fish look like they're just floating around.

Nice!

I agree, the HM growing between the rocks has taken away from it a bit.
