Nothing bothers my mosses.

BTW I loved the 2nd scape you did. The current one just appears too empty to me. Perhaps a foreground would help and the fish could still swim in the water above the foreground....

I have to agree. I have added some mosses and If I can find a good price on a load of anubias, I will reiterate the second scape, except with higher "mountains" in the corners

Added more anubias after these pics. were taken, trying to fill the left slope up like the right

Thanks! I sure hope so

Mosses look nice. What about pulling your anubias out from the wall and sliding in there some crypts, tropica or wendtii ect.... Going from right to left it would get higher with a little darker color as it gets higher. Just an idea. Still feels too empty. Love the hastifolia and all the different anubias. Do you have coffefolia in there? Do I see anubias barteri gold?

Looks like a standard fin. Do you have any other fish in the tank right now?

Nice scaping. Hehe if you could get sand on the left it would almost look like an oasis!

I wasn't sure if things had changed. Hard to see many of them in that most recent pic.
