If there's any suggestion that I'd make, Pejc, it would be to add some plant or plants that have some red coloration and interest. With your CO2 and lighting, you could do that. But, that's a matter of taste, and once again...that's a beautiful tank you have there.

Excellent work, Predrag. Love the way you documented your setup. I'm curious about your substrate. Can you please elaborate the setup of your substrate?

Vidimo se.

6. sand 1-4mm
1. I put some sand to the bottom of the aquarium to prevent scratching glass.
2. Then I put some type of coconut fibers (I buy them in pressed form and when I put it in water they change the volumen 6 times)
3. Some peat for plants that I buy in flower shop (I kept it in water for almost a month before put it in aq)
4. Another layer of coconut fiber
5. After that I put some mosquito network over all to prevent water mist
6. And final layer of sand in the front it is 6-7cm and in the back 14-15cm

Is there anything else you're interested?

Vidimo se

Congrats, great work.
A little bit simetrical.
Probably adding more plants in the left side and moving the open area a little to the right will solve the balance.
Sorry about my english.
