Back in July I posted here about reaquscaping my tank. Since then I've let some things grow in, taken somethings out and added others. Mainly, I removed one piece of driftwood and replaced it with a much larger piece. However, there are still some spaces that I need to fill in. Specifically, the big empty space in the middle-right was formerly occupied by a hornwort forest, but I've since removed that. I'm thinking of maybe filling it with Apons. crispus or some sort of Vals. Anyway, here is the before pic:



And here it is now:



Please, any advice you can give is welcome... and pull no punches! [/font][/font]

In the spot in the middle right I would add Giant Hygrophila]http://www.aquahobby.com/garden/e_corymbosa.php[/link] or some [link=Wisteria. Both would fill your gaps and look nice.

See, I've been down the Hygro road before - although with h. polysperma, not giant hygro - and it became more of a weed to me. It was everyhere and i couldn't keep up with the constant pruning that was needed... in fact, I'm STILL cleanin glittle bits of it out of corners of my tank, and I thought I as rid of it months ago! Wisteria may be an option though...
