My First "real" Aquarium

[B C M]

Well after 4 days in this is how the new tank looks.
There will be more plants in and possibly different gravel, not too keen on the current colouring.

Anyway, let me have some feedback, stocking is as below and yes I've been told its an issue.

The heater is a temp 50w spare as the 100w packed in and my replacement Juwel one is on order and will be here on Tuesday, air curtain and tubing are temp until I can cut some new tubing and run it under the gravel.

Dont quote me on it but that looks like a fountain plant from what i can see, which is nonaquatic

I figured that, usually go by the rule if it stands out of water then its non aquatic, water change and new plants go in Thursday/Friday.

Maybe add a background? I always feel tanks look better with backgrounds, just a plain one. Helps hide leads too. If you add more plants they will likely be shredded by the lobster. This is also possibility with the fish, although it's not certain. Looks good.

Agree, a nice simple black back drop will really make fish, plants and ornaments stand out.
