What do you guys think???

I'm doing a 10 gallon demo/ setup tomorrow night. I'm doing a dry run right now, and I want to know what you guys think.

Here is a pic of what I really like...

I have plenty of smaller pieces. If you guys think it's too much, I'll pull something. If it's not enough, I'll add smaller pieces.

I will be using moss, ferns, anubias, cryptos, and maybe, not sure yet, a stem plant.

Slope the gravel steeper if possible.

That's the one I'm really leaning towards, and I was thinking the exact same thing! Might do some val or subulata in one of the corners. This will be non CO2 low light tank. I was thinking about adding echn. tennellus for a forground plant, micro sword, or hair grass. What do you think?

Maybe a moss foreground??? I can use nitting grids and sandwich it in between then anchor it down.

A friend of mine is going to give me some tennellus. I will use this for ground cover. I think it will look very good.

Guys the demo went great! Gerry came through huge with the plants. He gave me some very nice pieces of narrow leaf/ trident java, some coffefolia, and some other stuff for my tanks.

It was very engaging and fun to talk to the people to show them as I go. There was lots of questions. The tank was then auctioned off, and it looked so good, IMO, that I had to buy it lol... I purchased some nice gold barbs, that were breed by a member, and some beautiful killies to go in it.

I used some stems in it, but I may pull them and just fill in the areas with more anubias. I'll post pics and the vid later.
