Yes, right now its just cycling and im trying to get my plants to grow. Right now im trying to get my plants back into health because they dont look to healthy so im missing a key element. Ill post a thread in the Planted Section with pictures of all my not so healthy plants with hope that i will get good feedback.

So once i get my plants healthy again i will let things grow in and add some more plants along with some fish. I was thinking of putting my glowlights in here just because they breed regualarly in my community tank and to see if i can raise the fry. But now im undecided and in the middle of a dillema with these plants.

Nope its water sprite that has touched the surface and spread out. Ill try to get a close up of it if youd like. Its growing out roots just like my java fern. So its a baby plant, what the tech. name for them? One of them i pulled off and is floating but its real small, but its somewere in the mass of water sprite.

how about a nice piece of driftwood and some rocks? I always like the small planted tanks, you can really achieve a lush looking scenary with a small amount of plants. Take some more pics when it's further along to completion...

Yeah I agree with cyberfish that driftwood would look good, or even a structure/cave type thing.
