Thinking about a rescape

[himdie]

So thinking about getting rid of the wisteria and adding some syngonanthus "belem" since I like the looks of that and maybe getting rid of 2 out of the 4 amazon swords since theyre getting huge and placing maybe some pogo erectus or rotala back in the right corner

That sounds like a good plan. Swords to outgrow a smaller tank quickly. I have two in my tank that I really should let go but just cannot seem to do it. LOL

Rotala is a nice plant. Adds some color,

Thats one of them in the corner behind a rock cave I have, thinking maybe the rotala over there? Thoughts?

A couple groups of stem plants, especially along the back would look nice. Look for contrasting colors and leaf textures.
In the foreground, Staurogynes repens.
A year ago my tank was primarily swords, crypts, and dwarf sag. They have all been replaced with various stem plants. It's crowded now. No room for activities!
