Why do I always plant tanks backwards?

[kingearwig]

So my addiction to aquarium meringues been in remission for the last 2 years or so. But now it has reared it's ugly head again.

On top is a new 20 from Wally World. Underneath I set up a couple of bowls. Currently I have 4 immature mollies in the 20. In the bowls I am trying to propagate some moss. You may remember my 10 gallon tribute tank... This is the same moss I used in that tank. Not too sure what it is but it looks like stringy moss. It is pearling away. My plan is for this to be a plant grow out tank for a much larger tank in the future. But in the immediate future I think I will get a pair German bluesman in this tank. any suggestions are more than welcome and thanks for looking and for the being enablers to my addiction.

well that is the last time I use my phone to post. German bluesman = german blue rams. Here are some more pics too.
Here is a full tank shot. You can see that I planted everything backwards... but I am hoping as it fills in that it won't look so bad.

Here is a shot of my locally captured potamogeton cripus.

Boy I hope this plant is an aquatic one, but I doubt it.

here is a some kind of Sagg I also found locally

Very cool... there is no cure for the planted aquarium bug.

Nice pics.Since you know that you are doing your scape backwards,
try turning it around and head forward.Tall plants toward the rear and sides and smaller plants in front and midground. Good luck with your efforts.

thanks for the compliments. I am going to let stuff grow for a week or so then replant. also hoping to get some drift wood and let my stringy moss grow from it

Anyone have any idea what this might be? It isn't melting yet but it has only been in there for a few days.

well here one that might be easier, but my lfs just sells stuff like this as "potted plant"
Here is a pic of the flower

No one can identify my "potted plants"
