    Nice layout Abu. Would suggest you get some more plants in there. Will serve to keep potential algae issues at a minimum whilst adding more to the eyes.

    Maybe @Chandz can give you advice on the Apistos, she's a pro with them.

    Love the scape. Your stocking idea sound cool. I’d love Apisto myself but no space!

    Very nicely done. Just some recommendations.

    1. The wood on the left is blocking the view at the back. Maybe don't elevate it and stick it straight on the floor bottom.

    2. The plants in front of the dragon rock I'd move behind it or to the side
