WOW. Your tank is amazing. Looks some much bigger than what it is.

I think you could improve by adding some Anubias to the foreground of the driftwood.

Very nice aquarium

I have some shrimps in the tank, but totally not allow fish in my tank. I kept fishes before, very hard for me to control the Nitrate level.

Thanks for like my setup, but I am still want to improve it, feel that too bare......in actual fact, not a really low maintainance tank, trimming works is a must and need to add fert daily, I am playing around with the PMDD style dosing.....

Personally, I will replace some of the white medium size pebbles with brownish ones. Currently they look too white, slightly less natural. The overall feel is good. Getting ready for ADA 2008?

Thanks, I will try to look for darker colour stone. I am not too sure my tank is ready or not, but I will try my best to submit before the last week of May, do hope that some of the moss will growing more to cover the both sides of foreground. these few days trim off some leaves that growth in wrong direction......wish me good luck....

A good news and a bad news!!! Noticed that my shrimps are eating the algae make some places cleaner, but at the same time my green algae also gone a bit, so worry about that.

Bought 3 Red Crystal Shrimps(RCS), and after a day they are moving around in the tank happily.

I like the hardscape alot. Personally I would put the ferns more to the center rather than the side though.

Nevertheless this scape has very good potential, do keep us updated.
