This is what I have after tearing down my 5ft tank. It's been 1 mth since the pictures were taken.
Comments are welcome.

how about a frontal shot? looks really wild, surprisely the E. tenellus isn't over run by the E. quad in your tank

. Perhaps you can list out the plants.. I like the way you add the bigger pebbles on the gravel, kinda of natural

My whole tank. Sorry but it's still messy cos I have some other plants that I am cultivating in pots.

The back are mostly straight Vals, Val Gigantas, 1x Onion plant and 2 Red Tiger Lotus, 1 of which has just been seperated and is placed in the foreground temporarily.

I manage to confine the E. Quad within their area of growth by taking out any that overrun the E. Tenellus.

Actually all the plants are growing too fast. hence the 'wild' look.

Yah, a bit too many fishes. Most of them are leftover from my 5ft tank after selling a hundred Rasboras. Still have about 50 of them left, plus about 40 Neon Tetras, 2 Rams, 5 Otos, 3 SAEs, 2 drawf Puffers, 5 Green Cories, 1 long-finned Danio and 50 Yamatos.
And the shrimps are forever breeding. But I guess the fishes are forever eating the new shrimps too. Hehe

Anyone wants to buy my remaining Harlequin Rasboras? Almost all are fully grown with deep, orange bodies.

Is that what they are? There are 3 pots actually. I thought they were Echindorus Rubin. Are they the same?

with the color and well defined lines and slight crumply foldy leave, they look like barthii to me. Probably a close up photo can tell.

Yes! I just did some research and found them to be echinodorus x barthii!
