hi all

here's my 2 month old CRS tank.... a 24G nanocube.

plants : e. tenellus, blyxa japonica, HC, java ferns, spiky moss
fishes : 10xspotted rasbora, 4 otos.
shrimps : 5 yamatos, 12 CRS

using ada amazonia, co2 injection
pH 6.4
KH 3
nitrate 10-15ppm
po4 0.5-1ppm

took less than 1 hr to setup, so not much aquascaping standard

weekly dose of KNO3, PO4, seachem equilibrium, dr mallick's micro & profito
weekly water change

looks pretty darn good for a 1 hr setup!

you call that messy? That's a very nicely setup tank, have a tinch of wild look. i love the moss on the DW!

The moss on top certainly adds a character to your scape, very nice with the overall setup.

like the "messy" look is that a lone strand of blyxia japonica beneath the wood? kinda of look out of place there.

didn't look too bad when first planted... you're right, does look out of place.
planning to remove that and get some nana petite to "border" the DW.
what do you think?

nana petite would be a good choice
