Oh wow stunning cories in a beautiful set up!
Would love to see how this evolves and develops. What's the tall, trailing plant in the centre? Sorta looks like a clematis climbing up a trellis? I need one of those plants!

All the plants are south american based.
Sag grass, Brazilian pennywort, vallisneria Americana, staurogyne repens, echinodorus quadricostatus, and echinodorus ozelot. Plus a corale up top of water lettuce.
Arguing with the quadricostatus as it was a tissue culture and its still struggling to take hold.
What details do you want to know?
Tank size: 20 gallon long
Temperature 75F
pH 7 (maintained via Seachem Neutral Regulator)
GH 8
KH 5
Lighting: JC&P full spectrum LED for 6hrs daily
Thrive S liquid fertilizer 3x weekly
1 API root tab for the sword every couple months.
Filters are 2 internals, one has a spray bar.
Stock is 8 corydoras eques and 1 farlowella mariaelenae
Ah that's brilliant, thank you! I wanted some of that before, remember seeing it in someone else's tank and wanting some. @mbsqw1d you have some of this stuff, don't you?
Yeh, I picked plants from a south american biotope selection and yeh the Brazilian Pennywort was one of them. Its a bit like that Hydrocotyle tripartita 'japan' (that you can push into the substrate and train it to grow along the bottom) but with bigger leaves.
I need some! Have added it to my wish list, cheers! It looks fab in your tank too, looks good both growing tall and bushy/carpeting like that. I bet the otos and pygmies would like sitting on those leaves.
nice thanks. i wanted to know the plants and how you fertilised them. i have root tabs too! seems to really help the sword

Where did you get those corys? I hadn’t even heard of them until you posted here.
Looks incredible love the biotope detail on the plants very admirable to go to those lengths
