Howsit, people

I am in the process of two builds, one will be a 14G Reef tank - i have posted in the saltwater section asking for advice - and the other i am writing about now will be a 64 Gallon freshwater tank planted as a "freshwater reef" - i have attached a photo of what i am trying to achieve.

I have some fish in it already, but it is going to get a makeover!

The fish i currently have in it is:
2x hillstream tiger loaches
2x khuli loaches
1x ancistras pleco
1x pleco
2x neon tetra
1x albino cory
1x peppermint cory
2x black neon tetra
1x zebra danio

I am considering adding a piece of driftwood for the pleco's

I have 2x Zetlight 1201 Wifi lights, but i will remove them and use one on the 14G reef tank, and build a gantry with 2x 20W LED 6500K Floodlights for the Freshwater reef tank.

It currently has a Dophin C-1000 canister filter with a TeraQ airpump, i am planning on keeping the Filter but removing the airpump and installing a small wavemaker, and using pool filter sand for substrate.

Any thoughts?
