    @Christo, Looking good man. List of plants used? How about some short grassy plants in the front part.

    @Christo I see that in front of the one piece of wood it looks like you have planted an Anubia, it's best kept attached to a piece of wood or rock as the rhizome rots if planted under gravel...

    Lovely looking setup, I think it will be stunning once it has grown in a bit...

    @Christo, Vallisneria is one of them. I myslef do not know all the names for the grassy plants. Look up @azurekoi or @Zoom. They know more about plants. Maybe @wsteene can also help.
