thanks all, anynoe have any ideas on how to arrange it to look a little better, the pics look a little crazy I dont think its that bad, but it is a little excessive. I definately have to get rid of some moss, the big sword that was in the back outgrew the tank and went to the LFS. its babies are getting to be pretty large.
its just so hard to keep up with the plants!

i would suggest tieing the moss down to the rock so u get thicker growth and not as wild looking. this will give it a lucher look and u wont need to trim as often. it is java moss i assume right? u may also want to change where the rocks are in the front. they kinda make your tank look smaller becasue they block the entire rear section. is u angled them toward the back of the tank it would open it up a little. if that makes any sense lol. tank looks nice though and great growth.

the moss is tied down! it is super thick. I like the rocks in the front because I can see the fish in them, but I was thinking about rearanging them. I think I will just have at it this weekend and see what happens, Ill post the results.
oh if anyone wants any moss tell me now!

well just did a little trimming
