You have great growth and healthy plants! Your color is great! You might want to work on depth. You have a background height and a mid-ground height. You need a foreground. You've already done the hard part - growing great plants and no algae! Congrats!

Yep. It is the same tank. I got board with the origanal aquascape and re did it. Is it better before or after in your opinion?

I agree with Tex Gal that you would benefit from a foreground. That's why I liked your older layout better. In both layouts, you do a phenomenal job of maintaining the various stem plants.

Thank you Krisw. I will rack my brain and see if I can come up with some kind of way to put a foreground in. Thanks for the input.

I like the before better also, I'm sure you'll come up with something. I think the newer pic makes it look like a smaller tank
