At the risk of being redundant, I have to agree with the posts above.
Very well thought out and planted. Very clean looking.
You really used the wood to good effect. I'm sorry I won't get to see it live.
Are there any fish besides the Rasboras in the tank?

Dennis - Thanks for the kind words. I really like coffefolia, but you are right, it is difficult to use sometimes.

Len - I'm a little late here, as you were already over at my house to see the tank, but there is also a ton of amano shrimp in there.....and i think there are 5 oto's also

Here are a few more of the first few days.

Just as I am filling....


Probly the next day after I put the fish in...


It took almost exactly 4 months from these pics, to this pic.....


You can see how sparcely the tank was planted to start. To avoid algae, I had to run the lights for only 6 hours a day for the first month.
