tot so too.................... but heard red-couloured plants are difficult to maintain the redness.................. is it true????????????????

the branchy plant in the left foreground is supposed to be brown in colour, but it turned green instead.................

You have used the space quite well in using plants to cover up the back and the far corner. The tank does not look empty, and the clump of plants at the back catches the eye.

Also nice use of the wood, although the moss? on it looks suspiciously like green algae.

[ronald_t80]

Wah.....thats really a very nice first attempt bro.....nicely done!!
Hmm...you are making me eager to start up a 1ft cube setup too....ha

[johannes]

nice and green, i love the design...!!

[Quixotic]

Nice scape. But I couldn't help noticing, that is a lot of fish (I counted 60) for a 1 feet cube.

Although it is possible to get by a higher bioload withthe plant mass you have, some fishes would probably need more swimming space than what is currently provided.

Perhaps you would like to reconsider that. But it is your own tank, so it is eventually up to you. Just my friendly 2 cents.
