Hi
I hope you can help me out.
I'm starting my first adventure with aquascaping and start a easy project however I'm not 100% sure about the plants or fish.
bottom - imitation of grass - Lilaeopsis brasiliensis
cave - over grow with moss - lava moss
trees - bonsai - lava moss
fish:
clown angel fish x4
marble angel fish x 4
Lilaeopsis brasiliensis x9
black widow tetra x 30

tank 330l,
150cm wide

A DSM (Dry Start Method) will give you a fully carpet quicker/cheaper
So on fill day you can have a well established carpet already

Well worth considering ;)
 
Fish wise I’m not too keen on Black widow tetra - I was sent some in error by an online retailer instead of black phantoms; the phantoms are much nicer in my opinion.

I like angels but if you do opt for them it will limit the overall impression of your scape - small fish like tetras I believe work best unless the tank is massive. But it’s all down to personal preference!
