Ok, after a month and a half this is what it looks like. I have 2 96w PCs, pressurized CO2, flourite, and what ever you see in there. I also add flourish, flourish iron, flourish pottasium once a week. If anyone can point out anything i am doing wrong from the picture please let me know.

Thanks,

all of your growth looks very healthy, but your scaping is a bit helter skelter. i'd move taller plants to the back, shorter plants to the front. use your darker colored plants to your advandtage to break up the lighter colored greens.
 
I agree. Goldfish are coldwater, neons are tropical. Goldfish are messy and eat plants. There is also a native american/smallpox thing that could be a problem.

I personally love the setup! I think it's cool how you have a "mound" in the center and built almost a lawn around it with smaller plants! Even though your equipment still shows (which should disappear once your plants REALLY grow in) this is the exact method discussed on Takashi Amanos website, the Nature Aquarium. It is executed very well, and I think it looks great. Maybe you could try Glossostigma to fill in the extra spots left over, for a low lying carpet effect. Keep it up! Although I agree about the goldfish, not saying you should take it out- just be careful!!! Your tank look very clean, so I trust you are doing you job cleaning up after the goldfish, just be careful! If they are living, then the fish have obviously gotten over the adjustements, just be careful ;) That goldfish actually looks pretty nice!!
 
Thanks guys. I know the goldfish is bad, but my parents got it for me, and every time they come over and check the aquarium they look for the goldfish first. They love it. So I cant get rid of it. hahah.
