I currently have 1 planted 20 gallon tank. It has a 39 watt 10,000k bulb and an actinic bulb (didn't want too much light). I have DIY CO2 and a playsand substrate. Growing in the tank are plenty of dwarf hair grass, a red tiger lotus bulb, an anubias, and some blyxa aubertii. So far I have plenty of snails, three platys, two otos and some ghost shrimp.

Such a cool container for a tank. I once found a couple of those behind a Shopko store and ended up keeping mice in one.
10 gallon simple: 5 Neon Tetras, 5 Zebra Danios, 1 Flame Dwarf Gourami.

SEALED!
YES!
WOOT!
NO LEAKS!
Gonna fill it up overnight just to be super sure, but as of this typing, no leaks whatsoever.
I've got a ton of Rotala Indica and java moss sitting in my other tank just waiting to go into this thing! Huzzah!
I think it looks great. Don't be suprised if you see me with 1 of these soon.
The water level looks good, i just wanted to tell you to not put the plants in until you have a cycled tank so that it cycles faster do to the fact the plants use up the ammonia source.

Looks nice. Substrate seems fine. I wouldn't put fish in there though because it is very harsh on them. Just put fish food in there and it will be like having fish. Btw, have you tested the water yet?
