Was just going to do an adg style hardscape but decided to dress it up with some low light/maintainance plants(java ferns and crypts) Just a couple of quick iphone shots. Comments and criticisms appreciated. Thanks

I like that piece of Manzanita wood you got in there. And low light plants are the best. I hate losing money on dumb plants that die if you dont have energy wasting bright lights...
 
Do you have those java ferns planted in substrate? If you do, take them out, it'll kill them. Attach them to the wood, they will take root.

Other than that, looks good. Other plants you may want to try are amazon swords, and certain types of hygro.
 
Thanks. The Ferns are not rooted into the substrate. They are attached to wood. The rocks are placed infront of the areas of wood where they are attached. Was thinking of either a hygro or sword but for now just want to keep it clean and simple with just the two types of plants. Might change my mind later on though.
 
I really like it! very artistic. Give us some details about your tank, size, lighting, filtration. thanks
