You could always add in other kinds of Java Fern. I like Narrow Leaf and Windelov looks cool also. I have all 3 kinds.

That's true, I think I'll look for some once I have money again lol do you happen to know which kind I have now? I can attatch a closer pic of one I'd you'd like.

Here are some updated pics
I found out that the substrate I am using lowed my pH to about 6.8, then using a little peat, I brought it down to 6.5. Instead of doing rilis or yellows, I'm now contemplating CRS and CBS. However, matching the PWC waters pH will be a PITA lol whar do you guys think?

One little counter to that might be a little 1 liter bottle with that substrate in it and a little crushed coral. Put your water in there 24 hours in advance.
With shrimp tanks you don't have to do many pwcs, nor do they have to be large.
The tank looks awesome!!

No no....we want low PH for CRS/CBS. No crushed coral.
I just plan to top off with Distilled water. And water changes will be part tap/part Distilled and that should work for the OP's tank also.
I'm using AquaSoil, same idea as Fluval Shrimp Stratum.
And yes, looking at the new pics you do have Windelov Java Ferns.
