First Planted Shrimp Tank

I originally started off with just a couple plants in a large jar with 4 shrimps and a stowaway snail.

Yes that is a marble chess piece. I soaked the tree for a day but was still floating slightly.

1x flame moss on mesh
Peacock moss on tree
Dwarf Hairgrass
Anubias nana bonsai
Small piece of Indian almond leaf
A bunch of Salvinia Natans
Telanthera Cardinalis, I received them for free and hope they will survive even though i have read they may need Co2 a diffuser.
Pump interpet nano
Dual sponge filter
Small Bonsai wood tree
Random led lights from amazon
Substrate: tetra active substrate ( only bought this because it was the cheapest on eBay)
I did also have some cryptocoryne lucens but i left it as one plant and unfortunately the roots rotted.

Nice. I see you have a couple tetras in there, always thought its better to have at least 5. I was thinking about getting a couple fish but that would require water changes.
You should get a small piece pf moss in there. Everyone loves a bit of moss
