Mark F. Newbie	The low-angle shot on your main photo creates a nice dramatic effect. I dig the moss "tree".


1withNature Newbie	This is brilliant; a fine job indeed. How long did it take you to get the floor covered like that? The odd moss ball boulder up front is nicely placed.


Vilelent Newbie	The floor was planted middle of April, I only had enough for the right side, So I basically had to take small sections of it and start planting them on the left side. It took almost 2 1/2 months before it started to fill in to where it was eye pleasing. I still have a few patches of dirt in the front, but I mostly try to keep that area clear for my algae wafers I drop. Makes it easier to clean.


sevenyearnight Planted Tank Obsessed	Simply beautiful!
