    Hi all, This is my 1 ft cube tank.
    Plants : US fissiden, Flame moss, Nanas,Süßwassertang and frogbits!
    Livestocks : Fire red, CRS, BDS & 2 snails.(total strength about 30 adults and many shrimplets)
    Tank is about 3 month + old to date.
    Please enjoy!

    Picture taken by a 2mega pixes hp camera thus not very sharp, please pardon me as my camera had up lorry

    FTS


    Top left corner - The nanas + frogbits maze!


    Top right corner - The place to surf the waves! Hof spitting water there.


    Bottom left corner - Favourite hiding spot below the driftwood. As I've created a deep hole by putting less soil below the wood.


    Bottom right corner - The play ground with "maze" & us fissiden, Süßwassertang ball!


    All comments are welcome!

    This is a nice shrimp tank but scape-wise, quite messy
    The 4 standing meshes of fissiden looks unnatural and will likely not get enough light. Even fully grown, they'll still look out of place.
    The wood is somewhat too large for the tank and too symmetrical and centered

    With so much shade from the wood and nanas, I suggest you keep the frogbits as minimal as possible unless you're relying on them to soak up nitrate, in which case you should get rid of them often and leave only 3 or 4 patches. Otherwise, the tank will look very dark, although I think the mosses will not die, they will not grow much either.
