    Tell you guys a relevant joke..

    We had a MAC workshop-5ft tank rescape at East Aqua in Ikano KL.

    Plants we ordered were HC -Hemianthus callitrichoides sp cuba

    Planted everything...one full day...including remove old soil+algae etc.

    One week later my friend called me- eh- why you guys planted HM as the lawn? Looks like got HC and HM mixed together! I was like??? Turns out emersed HM looks almost exactly like HC.

    [The mixed lawn looks interesting though!]

    what you mean too close blurr... did you read what i wrote?
    in english " a shot that is not so close up" means i dont want a close shot. something further back to get an idea of the actual size.
