    After 3 month of planting, the plant is growing back with new leaf and start to grow faster. But algea is coming as well, not so much right now, just some stick on the glass wall. I am doing some cleaning weekly, wondering any effective way to deal with it? I am thinking it will slowly gone when other plant grow taller and bigger. Anyway, hope you all give some feedback to me for the setting and plant inside the tank.

    Lovely tank - just one thing. Remove the Cabomba. It draws my attention no matter where i look. Its a hideous plant and detracts away from the spectacular centre piece!

    I see Red Line Torpedo Barbs Fabulous fish!

    Great tank, bro. Maybe you can try to place some oto or snails to deal with your algae issue.
    Cheers

    Those algae grow on the wall must be GSA, those are common algae in most tank, usually every week when we change water we will scrub the wall to remove it.

    Just a note, if I were you I'd remove the cabomba (they are, right?) at the sides. It stretches the scape too wide.

    Nice scaping overall.

    If you have algae issues, and it is on the tank walls, perhaps it is your circulation and/or your fert regime.
    Studying the water chemistry and nutrients is a science.
    Knowing what plants to get and how to use them is an art.
    Aquascaping is a marriage of art and science, the logical and emotional.

    The centre part. You can link your photo from external, such as photobucket website then you dont have limited space, you will have unlimited space.

    Looks much better without the Cabomba's. They really are an eyesore in most tanks

    Looks more natural now Keep the updates coming
