I posted pics of this tank after I removed a lot of the java moss (which has been "rehomed" into the other tanks). I decided to add a few more plants before getting any fish for this tank. This tank is 29 gallons, all live plants with Eco-Complete substrate, Penguin 350 filter, assorted Nerites and ramshorns are the only inhabitants right now. Before:

Not sure i see the difference. Did you trim the plants? I don't think there are enough snails in your tank

On the left side you can see the tall Anubias. On the right there are a few fronds of tall vals.

I have a 10 gallon Assasin tank so whenever there are more than enough pond snails I scoop them up in a brine shrimp net and deposit them in the Assasin tank.

I also have Nerites in the tank which are keepers!

Very nice! I love the look of a planted tank.
