Your feedback on these planted tanks is wanted

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Here is the final look of the 29 gallon with the last 2 plants added. And here is how the 10 gallon looks. It's still a little cloudy from moving things around. Tell me what you think.

The rock on the right is too far to the right for my taste. It is making me lose part of the left side of the tank. It does look MUCH better now though. Although, I would bring the plant in the back left corner forward a few inches and to the right a couple.
 
I think I am gonna rearrange these tanks again. What I want most importantly is a carpet/lawn in these tanks and I don't think it is possible with all the stem plants competing for C02. I don't plan on using any C02 in either tank. I will use excel and DIY C02 just to boost growth, but after that I am stopping it. And I also don't plan to do water changes.

I think I will put all these other plants in my 20 long and use a DIY C02 and dose ferts. Only thing is the substrate is play sand and it has a single T8 fixture on it. I was thinking of getting (2) CFL clamp lamps and using that instead. Because one problem is that t only lights the back and middle part of the tank, the front doesn't get much.
