Last night I set this up with pool filter sand and oak leaves.
I think it is a Montezuma Cypress. It says earlier on in the thread.is that a pine that main plant
I'm sure this is the same one!Just yesterday I got the Montezuma cypress (Taxodium mucronatum) sapling that I had ordered. The potted plant that they sent looked pretty good. It came rooted in a 1-gallon pot.
Yes, I think they give off some sort of poison that affects water qualities. Or oils or something like that!just thought pines weren't good in the aquarium

Do you have any idea of what rasboras you're going to keep?
This is certainly a unique aqua scape! Great job.
Where will you put the aquarium heater given the minimal height of the glass?
I have a quick update photo. This is with a black background and some Photoshop. I added a couple of new plants. You can see the Marsilea fern over on the right. I am trying to decide whether I like the underwater area or not. The oak leaves have stained the water and sand. I wonder if I might prefer very clear water instead and a combination of sand with gravel and stones(?).
Still no fish yet.
