    Hi guys and gals,

    I'm new to this forum. Recently I had a spark of interest in fish keeping and aquascaping. So I started researching on everything about fish and plants from all over the web, forums and blogs. The best part is I found an empty 54L tank in my store (Yeah save money). All i had to buy were the filter, substrate and lights. After some researching I decided to do low tech aquarium which was much cheaper and less demanding.

    Most of my stuff i got it from:
    - C328
    - Polyart
    - I think its called Swee Seng Aquarium (At Sunset way)
    - Green Chapter

    Here is my photo of my tank. Hope you guys like it! =)

    Plants:
    - Java ferns(background-mainly leftside)
    - Java fern, windelov (background-mainly rightside)
    - Im not really sure of the plant on the right hand sidemiddle ground(can you guys help me identify)
    -Mirco Swords(foreground)

    For the nutrients I just used borneowild Lush, Growth and Essence K. No CO2.

    Live stock:
    - 7 Zebra Danio (Glofish)
    - 12 Neon Tetra
    - 4 Otoclinus
    - 3 Peppered Cory
    - Cherry Shrimp (10 i think cos I bought a whole bag)
    - 10 Ember Tetra
    - 10 Celestial/Galaxy Danio (My fav fish its so nice!!!)

    Hope you guys can give me feedback or any comments

    Do not look like microswords. Microswords looks more compact and have more leaves.
