Hello guys,
The tank is 8 months old. Plants have grown quite well specially the Vallisneria, Cryptocoryne Wendtii Brown, Cryptocoryne balansae, moses, Marsilea hirsuta and other. Some not so well, like the Bolbitis heudelotii close to dead or the Hygrophila pinnatifida who was doing fine initially but then totally died off. I have been experiencing some deficiencies but I will hopefully remedy that with some EI dosing soon.
Anyway, I don't intend on re-scaping the whole tank but I would like your recommendations on changes that could be made here and there that would:
1 - improve circulation
2 - reduce trimming
3 - improve appearance
@hogan53 has already advised on a separate thread removing (all or partially) the Vallisneria and replacing it with some other plants like Rotala sp, Didiplis diandra or Ludwigia.
Your opinion, advise/recommendation is welcome.
Here is how the tank looked on day 1:
Here is how it looks today:
And here is a short video so that you can see the tank on all 3 sides:
