Hi,
The tonina are growing very well. How long has been planted? Looks like you just planted your foreground plant. Is it Elatine tiandra? They need rather high 1evels of N.

You may want to use a rainbar to break the splashing to reduce CO2 loss, unless you're doing it intentionally. Other than that, job well done.

The toninas looks great, my views :

1. Limnophila hippuroides doesnt look too matchy besides tonina. Probably will look better when its a bigger group, grown and more yellowish for better color transition from the bright green of tonina.

2. The left center back is Didiplis diandra?? The leave form and size might not match the ludwigia. The bigger leaved limnophila can become the focus in time to come, the equally but differently shaped leaves of the ludwigia might compete for focus.

3. The (riccia?) wood leaning on the right front corner looks awkward. Replace the entire right front corner with a cluster of (maybe) lobelia? But it will be too green intensive. Find a suitable green-reddish midground.

4. The 2 piece of wood on the left side and center creates a disconnected picture.

5. The single blyxa in the center might turn out to a interesting feature, let's wait and see

6. I have never tried elatine foreground with midground using moss. IMO, the color of the 2 differs too much, bright and dark green. Some form of color transition or blending in between the two should make the aquascaping to be eyes soothing.

7. I am sure you will want to see your moss wall, with all stems plant lining the background, it will be blocked most of the time.

8. The lily in front of the tonina will very soon block it from view.

9. You might want to consider more (branchy, mossy) wood on the left corner, spilling towards mid center. That will give u a bay-like foreground.

10. I don't think you need any riccia in this setup.

Need to take care that fish don't get trapped between the mesh and tank glass.
BTW - are you using Java Moss in the mesh?
