Any tips on my 5 gallon tanks

Here’s a picture of 33 gal
There. A bit similar, pearl weed can become a carpeting plant like monticarlo. There a background plant and a stem plant which as you said makes it bigger. The pearl weed would grow quicker then the monticarlo. I would imagine it's easier to cut then monticarlo. It's also helped remove ammonia, nitrates and other.
If you want to take the java fern out then do it. But if I was you I would wait abit for it to look to big for the tank then remove it. Also the 30gallon looks lovely it's a really good looking breeder
So pearlweed would do well in the back of the tank and yeah I won’t move the Java fern out until it gets to big because I like the Java fern
That’s actually really nice
What is it stocked with again
My ancistrus never bothered my plants and really only ate algae when it was young.
Also, I think the Monte Carlo could use high lighting and CO2 to really do well. I love the Fluval Plant 3.0 aquarium light and have it on two of my tanks, but they are definitely not inexpensive.
In my opinion a 5 gal is good for shrimp and inverts, but I wouldn’t add any more fish that what you already have in there. It is not easy to keep stable water parameters when you throw fish into the mix in such a small tank. The fish carry a larger bio load than the shrimp and the shrimp can’t handle fluctuations like the fish can.
I like your tank though. It is definitely decorated the way I like to do tanks too. Enjoy your aquariums and good luck with breeding your ancistrus.

TNG
Fish Crazy
It looks a bit like Giant Baby Tears (Micranthemum umbrosum).
Oh just a couple of endler guppy’s and adult shrim and baby shrimp
Are you talking about Moneywort (Bacopa Monnieri)? Sure, if you like it, I would say go for it.
