Very lovely saintly! I like what you have done to fill out the middle ofscape around the driftwood. I have always struggled with that "dark zone" as the stems around it tend to cast a shadow. I have used a narrow leaf java fern like I have seen on some Amano scapes, but dark green leaves just did not work. Using the Anubias with its light green leaf was brilliant. Do you think the nana "petite" might work OK to?
