Hi Andrea, image was not showing so I re-uploaded it to a different host, maybe your bloghost does not allow redirection.
Tank is looking great as always :) magnifico
 
Really lovely 'scape. One thing I am not too sure about though, is the left side where it looks like there is a dark spot between the microsum and the carpeting moss and tennelus.
Maybe use another plant to grade the planting down towards the carpet?
Like you did on the right.
