Re-arranged a few plants, and added a couple HC patches to the setup to hold the dirt down... bought 2 new red plants today which i'll add in tmr, but here is the setup and what it looks like at present... any thoughts / comments welcome :)

Looks good so far, what are the red plants you got, telanthera? I did done of these once but went with normal sand and a home made CO2 setup, saved a few bucks to put into the lights.

The whole Co2 kit cost me USD $100 (1L Co2 bottle / atomizer / bubble counter / adjustment unit)
