Reply With Quotehmmm you need somemore foreground plants.. hmm the saggitaria looks not bad but put it in the mid ground, it would be nicer. And also get somemore background plants... the left and right hand side look very sparse...
btw whats the tank specs?

Holy is the Lord, God Almighty ! The Earth is filled with His Glory !
90 x 50 x 50 cm tank: Eheim 2217; ANS CO2 Solenoid with 60mm intense bazooka; Zetlight 6400; Teco 500 Chiller; Borneo Wild Steel inlet/outlet
Ferts: Dry Mixture/Dr Mallicks. Temp: 26 degrees Substrate: ADA Amazonia
as for foremost part, i not too sure whether isit saggitaria or E.tenellus. all the while i tot is E.tenellus, cos it will turn bit reddish after much lighting!
running 2*40w, 1*35w lighting for 9hrs/day;
running 2*fan, temp @ 26-26.5c;
CO2 tank, @ 1bps;
Tot of covering the foremost foreground part with E.tenellus, and midpart with moss....but still looking for rectangle shaped driftwood to tied on it.
As for the right most background, tot of placing Aponogeton longiplumulosus, not too sure any of LFS selling it less going to farm! And some Echinodorus too.
the rest still awaits the moss on bogwood to mature.
Any fern-liked plants can recommend to me, as i would like to go for low light requirement and easy plants!
Fern like? Bolbitis and Java fern fit your bill.
Not bad, but you'll want mid ground plants to smooth the flow from foreground to background.
any plants to recommend to fill up the midground?!?!
if i placed moss instead; will it be nice?!?!
be going LFS to get some plants...
You can consider blyxa japonica for the mid-ground.Originally Posted by didi
Updating my tank.....realise growth rate kinda slow( habent change my light tubes- past 6mth already)
included cherries abt 40 or so........found couple of cherry shrimplets
jux planted the E.tenellus....
be getting more plants to fill in the mid-foreground
really looks quite good now... and hmm strangely, it looks like E.tennellus but i feel its like quite large for one.... looks like sagg... hmmmm but on a closer look yea its tennellus... anyone can explain how come the tennellus so large?
Btw, i think Hair grass or APP would grow better in your tank.

nice red tenellus u have there. by the way, have u added any base fert, fertilisers or plant growth stimulant?
Either this growth promoters excite ur tenellus to achieve the current height or due to that you planted them sparse apart initiately.
used to have a patch of tenellus in my cube til i transferred them into a fern tank. seen some big ones when i removed them..
It's a nice tank, but there's something missing. I don't know what. Perhaps... there's no theme?
hmmm..just asking out of curiosity...did u laid some white sand or stuffs at the extreme right corner?? white substrate ah?? for wad one??
there arent any base fert for this tank, jux those fert sticks which i rooted them to individual plants generously.
planted them sparsely could be the reason making them grow big.
would like to plant more heavily to further create wildness look
