The driftwood is Malaysian and has java moss tied around it, its also resting a rock to create a mini cave like area

The clown puke is a bit distracting. Otherwise, it's a nice tank.

I would remove the colored gravel and maybe add some dwarf sag or red crypt wendtii in the front, otherwise, I like it

I think we've all had colored gravel at one time or another . I'm sure I've used blue gravel in the past. My objection to it is that it draws the eyes away from your plants, in itself it does not look bad.

All I can think of is separating it one by one, but that doesn't sound fun

 

[Fish_Fan]

Yeah same? anybody have any ideas?

Just pick out the obvious ones on top. Or push them down into the Black gravel. It didn't look like a lot.

Ok thank you will do! I've been looking on EBay and saw some dwarf sag, water wisteria and steel mesh sheets for my java moss wall. Do water wisteria or dwarf sag need any high lighting or root tabs?

Wisteria is a weed. And grows like one LOL. Dwarf Sag is nice. You can trim it if it gets too big.

Ask on here, we have members that sell plants. Or join the planted tank for free and buy from other hobbyists there.
