looks good. Add more Anubias petite on the middle foreground around the wood!
The bros said it!, kinda unusual to have ADA soil and lapis though
, perhaps it would look better with the HG(are these dwarf hairgrass?) grows in.

yea i know its kinda unusual but i thought heck, since all using white gravel, i might as well try something novel, and i thought the contrast is nicer than the white that pple normally use. Anyway, i m still trying to find nanas petite, a little ex around in shops now though.... and also any suggestions for the right side? or leave it bare? I was thinking of what to add in the centre portion as well, maybe something like crypt parva

I would surround the bottom of the wood with nana. For the normal nana, if your lights are low, they will grow out to have very small leaves almost like that of nana petite. I tried it on my shrimp tank for 2 years and people could not differentiate it from nana petite![]()



Bro, you need more HC man!
Crypto. Walkeri is a small crypt you may want to try on the mid ground. a little different in color u know... It's purplish red... and also dark dark green..
Check with Bro Knightx if he's still got Japanese Hairgrass. In my honest opinion, nicer HC then dwarf or typical local ones.
Otherwise, use very small lava rocks and wrap mosses around it.. Also very nice when grown. just leave some patches of sand uncovered by vegetation looks really cool (like ADA).

If you don't mind travelling down to Teo's, he have some some Nanas, which like joe mentioned, will remain nice and small if they are placed in shaded areas and nicely trimmed...Originally Posted by Phillipians

The wood's damn nice, the rocks can be better placed but I don't know. If you have pointy rossette plants around the driftwood great depth can be achieved imho.
