what are your choices?


do you have plants, bog wood, stones??

i have alot of plants and bog wood, should i add some plants before i fill it all the way up or would cold water kill the plants?
 
wnt kill them.

id wait till all the waters in tho neway. no reason why i guess, jus would.


as for the layout.

play with ya wood and see which angle it looks best at.

i have some in my tanks and i jus moved em around till i thought they looked best.


then i jus plant up around em so they dnt look like theyve jus been stuck there.


few pebbles might not go a miss either.
 
ok ive added the wood and some moss poles ill add a pic when its full up with water
 
ok heres it now its a bit dark is their a way to add another bulb into a juwel hood? any comments?

Looks good. But, I'm not sure about the moss pole up front. Maybe it should go a little further in the back. The first thing I saw was that and its not the most attractive thing. But I'm sure it'll look better once it matures? Just a suggestion...
 
thats fine any sugestion is what i need, i moved things a bit but i think i have to many moss poles and i havent even added them all yet,i added another anubias nana to my drift wood hopefully it will grow as fast as my other one, if i were to add some filter media from my other tank with the fish in how long would it be till they could all move in?
