saw your tank on AQ. But this pic is much clearer somewhat.

The plants are well placed. your foreground needs more time to fill up the space before it is nice and lush.

The wood idea is there. However i think it is a bit too think for my liking and that the wood on the right side should be a it longer.

Overall and at this point of time, i would say that it is a very pleasant tank to view the fish, especially when they school.

That's a very well blended setup. The wood placement, shapes and sizes make the setup very natural dude. Well done. Wish I had your skills. Did you spend much on the setup?

I like it, but i thought that if the plant region is more compact than what u have there it might give the set up more punch. If spreaded outwards any more it would become a flat wall of ferns

I'm already constantly trimming the ferns but these plants still spread like wild fire in my tank. Thanks for the advice.

Nice Bro. it would look better if u have some red colored plants in there to contrast the green and dark gravel.
