got hooked on aquascaping after looking at a lfs planted plant shrimp tank and my research on aquascaping and finding out on amano's work and alot of other's inspiring planted tank 2 months back. after numerous trial and error finally got to this layout.

although still not satisfied with it and far off from my dream tank..

inhabitant: 5 mosquito rasboras, 18 long nose, 3 bee, 6 snowball, 5 apple snail, 3 nerite horn

looks great for a first try! what's the name of the red plant?
and do feed your long nose well, or they may find certain plants very very yummy

i feed my long nose and they are still caught munching on my plants... it;s ok, plants can grow back

they do like plant/vegetative material.
...as long as they don't ruin your beautiful aquascape, haha...
if the plants don't grow back as fast as their appetite, you may find some botak!
