Oh, I like that! The green on the left makes it feel more complete! What are you planning on doing with the open bit of gravel? It looks odd.

What is the stuff you just added? Some type of moss?

Thanks! The bald spot is just where I ran out of moss

sweet looking setup.. im slowly getting a feeling that you really really love the moss and anubias.. the theme seems to spread across all your tanks

Are you still using 3 spiral bulbs as your lighting?

Thanks. And yes, I love moss ferns and anubias. I should be getting a boat load of needle leaf fern and bolbitis any day now.

Though, my 20 gallon tank has no moss or anubias, anymore... It used to though

That really came together, love the progression.

I added a bunch of needle leaf fern and some bolbitis to the left side. I also put some bolbitis on the right. LMK if you need pics

I traded in the 6 fire rasboras and the two angels (they were getting aggressive and nipping at everything) for 6 more rummies

CL the tank looks great I love an all green tank. Don't add any red plants. It looks cool and calm. Maybe some large dark rocks would complete the scape.
