Plants Hardscape and Layout
Glossostigma carpet out front, surrounded by mini landscape stone, either end of the tank is a small amount of Pogostemon Helferi on the right side, the P.helferi is infront of a big bush of Java fern and on the left side, it sits infront or a small coconut shell covered in alot of unknown moss, behind the moss and also to the left of the Java fern is a whole load of Blyxa japonica, theres also a few patches or sSaurogyne sp, on infornt of and next to the P.helfri and one far left corner, im looking to cut down on the Blyxa but i wanted mass so as that i didnt get a ton of algae on the moss and Glosso, not sure what ill replace it with,
LAYOUT now changed, see pics. soon to change again i feel when i get my wood and stone from plantedbox.
