I'd say it is moderately planted. I have a small crypt, anubias, java moss and fern, rotala a small sword and floating riccia (because it fell apart). I recently planted some glosso, but it isn't showing up much yet to be of any coverage, and there is a red lily too. I can see the back walls, not all of them of course. But when I go around the tank, I can see just about everything.
