I am a novice this is my first scape the first one was just too man made I think this looks more natural I still want to improve it but now I am going to leave this alone and see how it starts to fill out

I really like it. I especially like the fact that you've kept the outside empty. It almost looks like an island and you have the beach, then the forest. Corny comparison, but there's just something about that that makes me want to do that!

Wow now that is a compliment coming from the king of scapes himself!! Cheers fort very much appreciated, any room for improvement?

I really like it. Good use of negative space. I wouldn't change a thing at this point. See how it looks in a few weeks as it starts to grow out.

Cheers fort...should I be doing anything else? I've got diy co2,liquid fert (only just started) and root tabs...any other things I could be doing to help it all fill out? Also is the dwarf hairgrass a lil too tall?

Sounds like you are on the right track.

I like the current height of the dhg. It will be ready for trimming by next week IMO.
