I'm going to experiment with driftwood and lava rock. Hopefully they'll look good together.Looking good! Put a lot of thought into it, will be good to see what you come up with
These are all the plants I was looking at getting atm:
Alternanthera reineckii Rosanervig
Echinodorus
Aponogeton boivinianus
Marsilea crenata
Rotala wallichii
Aponogeton madagascariensis
I went ahead and started to cycle the filter while I'm waiting for everything else. I want to have this done as quick as possible.

I see you finally changed your avatar back. I was starting to think that would never happen.
Still need to add some more plants, but this is what I have so far.

Thought I'd update this thread a bit, I'm messing around with the Fluval Spec V tanks just now; but given that it's Christmas, and I can't afford to mess about chopping and changing tanks like I usually do, I'm attempting to keep satisfied with these for as long as possible lol. Currently running the following:
Tank 1: Fluval spec V - white betta
I like the oversized filtration in these tanks, and they have also improved the lighting; too much I think actually, I've had to add salvinia to block the majority of it and avoid algae
Tank 2: Fluval spec V - Crystal Black and Red Shrimp
Another spec v, with shirakura soil to drive the pH down, I just want these little guys to breed; it's a challenge I was unable to really fulfill in their 10l cube. More to come on this one, heavily laden with moss and Java trident.
Tank 3: Dennerle nano cube 10l -Sakura red shrimp
I also love the dennerle curved glass tanks, this one being no exception. Glass quality is nice, and its just a very stylish tank; the main drawback with the 10l is the size being limiting in shrimp breeding; also have to be super careful not to overfeed. I don't know what's happening with this one tbh, I like the dwarf hairgrass and anubias petite, but I'm desperate to get the shrimp breeding, otherwise it kind of defeats the purpose of keeping shrimp for me I think patience is key for this one
