Hey, I wanted to put some pictures of my tank and see what feedback I get back!

20 tall tank with a 55watt compact flourescent light with DIY CO2
A few pics from 2 weeks ago

My fish list now consists of one Rainbow Shark, four Zebra Danios, four Neon Tetras, and one Threadfin Rainbow (more to be added soon), I've also got ramshorn snails in the tank that I'm thinking of getting rid of and getting shrimp for cleanup any thoughts?
As for plants I have Anubius nana, another small anubius 6", twisted Valisneria, and three small crypt wentii's (planted a month ago)
Looking to get two swords any thoughts?

And the newest pictures

Thanks for checkin it out, any feedback is appreciated!

Yea that was my thought as well, just been busy bringing the plants to life! Do you think everything would look better with the black background? Any thoughts on the plants I want to get? I am thinking about an amazon sword for the back right corner and another for the left side in front of the in tank filter to kinda hide it a little more.

New Black Background

Added the black background, it looks good! Along with giving a reflection of everything in the tank, it also shows the algae that was growing. Did a little clean up job and will post pix tomorrow so I don't disturb my fish even more than I already have!
