My Planted 125 Gallon

Don't know how you guys take such good pictures of your tanks lol, either too bright or yellowish in color but tried my best.

It's a 125 Gallon Community filled with mostly tetras, barbs and rainbows, but also includes corys, angels and a few other fish and catfish.
Initially wanted to let the plants go crazy and grow out as much as they wanted but when I started clearing up space in front I realized the fish definitely enjoy the extra room a lot more. I was hoping to clean up the right side but I have a huge colony of shrimp (red, blue, yellow, orange) that live there and breed, don't want to risk exposing them too much and having them killed off, even though its pretty impressive their numbers are growing with a rainbow shark, betta, pitcus, and angels nearby.

Any opinions to improve the tank are also appreciated it.
Don't have that much light on anymore either, reduced the bulbs down to 4 T5HOs.
No longer dosing CO2 and I think I'm finding better results.

Hi

Wow that's nice, and you stopped using Co2? well done.

Any opinions to improve the tank are also appreciated it.
We should be asking you how to improve our tanks.
 
BEAUTIFUL!!

I love heavily planted tanks instead of hardscape. But that’s just me.

Hard to imagine shrimp, especially smallish shrimp , living in a tank with the predator fish you mentioned.

Yet glad it’s working for you.

Thank you all for the comments,
I Should have added, the tank definitely could not have become what it is today without the help from so many members on this website, that's a fact!
 
The only thing that I’d change would be the location.

Put it in my house!
