    Hi,
    Other comments first, maybe in future for the convenience of forummers, you could use this to insert the url to your pics. Easier for us to view.

    [url=http:yourwebpage.com]title of your webpage[url]

    Secondly, we need to sign up as a member before we can view the pics. To me, i think it inconveniences forummers and therefore discourages us to view your pics. You could try pbase, geocities or angelfire. Rgds.

    I do agree that the before setup looks nicer. Believe it could be the plants you have are nicely arranged.
    Cheers!!

    I believe the first tank look nicer because most of the plants are fully grown, the second one had been trimmed and 1/3 of the tank reconstruct(on the right side)

    Also my rotala macrandra and ludwigia arcuata started growing new red leaves after i removed the carbon filter from my ehiem pump.

    However still figuring what plants to add to my right side,
    anyone have a idea?

    I feel that before set up was nicer. The foregrd seems quite bare. Maybe can add some carpeting grass such as APP, HG or glosso? Overall, i think its nice

    The white and orange fish are discus
    I brought snow white (white) chai discus $110 and golden sunrise (orange) Pasir Ris farm $65.
    Both are breeding almost every week on the co2 reactor but the fries are gone the moment they free swim when the light shut off at night.

    I have hairgrass in the foreground but they are spreading extreemmlly slow[] i will wait for a few more weeks and see how so far only have success with glosso as carpet.
    The HG have been there around 2 months.

    Hi

    Try this.....place some small tiny pebbles all over the foreground. Soon you will see these foreground plants sprouting. Of course a little patient is needed. I learnt this from Amano's idea and it works. Have u wonder how Amano got those beautiful lawn? Actually you do notice some of these foreground plants tends to grow well near corners and around our drift woods. It is actually some kinda of pressure point we are applying on the substrate. What do you think?
