10 Gallon Planted

Since this is the forum that got me hooked on fish keeping I thought I show you all my finished 10 gallon tank. When I say finished I mean I'm done adding stuff for now. Just going to enjoy it for awhile and hope to see some plant growth soon. I'm hoping the java moss will carpet across the foreground. Inhabitants are 7 hengel rasboras.

Comments and suggestions welcomed!

The black background is a nice, effective contrast, too...very "80s educational video".

That's very pretty and artistic...I can't wait til it grows in the way you want it to, but it's already very nice!

Makes my planted look all chaotic lol.

Your tank looks great, love the hardscape. Good luck taming the java moss, mine looks like the Grinch on a bad hair day. Are you using any CO2?

Thanks everyone.

This is a low-tech tank at 2 wpg. I just started experimenting with dosing Excel. If the moss spreads too wildly I'll have to move things around. My hope is to keep the moss trimmed low to look like grass. I'm new to all this so I'll just have to figure out what to do as it comes. I guess that's the fun part about this hobby.

NVM a little research was all that was needed in this situation, sry for the waste of space.
