thats really nice, im loving the sand/gravel mix, makes it look more natural,personaly i dont like the plastic grass plants, but i do have them in my fry tank, and they really enjoy pivking at them, so maybe you have them for the same reason.. but yes its a really nice setup

I like the substrate mix - does it take much work to keep it from just mixing together?

Also, I wish my plants would grow like that - I'm still stuck using about 2/3 silk plants to keep the tank looking planted.

No work at all, hasnt really mixed together at all, My plants seem to grow like crazy im always clipping them (light is only on for 8 hours a day), but i like a heavily planted tank (so does my angel good.gif )

the substrate mix is coming up pretty well. i've have more plants in there really to 'eat' up some of the space. you might want to move the deco around towards the centre so that the tank won't look so empty.
