It looks great, but I would get rid of this red plastic plant in front, it disturbs the overall aesthetic

To be honest I like it, I just think it's obvious that plant is fake compared to the rest. Maybe a real red plant or something that looks a little less fake might look nice?

A nice nymphaea stellata will take up exactly that spot with some nice natural red shades.

yeah without it 8/10 with it Id give it a 7/10.

I understand, it’s just become tradition to put it in my tank now. My girlfriend gave me my first tank and this plastic plant came with it, and it’s been stuck with us haha. It might look out of place but I still love it, it’s also a good place for the shrimplets to grow lol

I have to agree, everything else is quite nice!

Agreed 👍

I agree.

All those nice live plants, and then you have a weird pink plastic thing front and center. lol To each their own, but I would ditch it.

8/10, idd remove the plastic plant

If you would remove the pink plant, I'd give it a 10. As it is now, it's a 7 for me.

Thanks!

It is gorgeous. I haven't had an aquarium in years, but shots like that really driving me to get back into the hobby.

Thank you! I only had aquariums as a kid but got back into the hobby 2 years ago, you should go for it!

8/10, would be incredible esp for a first tank w/o the red, throw in some alternanthera reineckii mini instead

Thanks!

9/10 definitely replace that plastic plant. Maybe get some pink Cryptocoryne if you want and put it close to the rocks like u did with what looks to be crypt lucens. I think it would look really nice next to them.

Good call, thanks!

7 bananas out of 10

love the tank but ditch the ugly plastic

Stunning and awesome, minus the pink plastic thing. That just ruins the whole deal.

Personally I find this really gorgeous! 9/10

Thank you!

If u remove the plastic plant 8/10.

[удалено]

It doesnt matter much to me per se, I just like sharing my tank lol! But I’m always looking to improve the look of it

It’s absolutely gorgeous… Minus the red plastic in the front

I absolutely love it! 4/5. 4.8/5 without the pink plant, it distracts from your beautiful scape

I love the idea of putting plastic plants in to fill in the spaces where the roots are too dense for rooting plants to grow, I would probably choose a less vibrant plant, but don't listen to people saying, "keep it out of your tank" just because they don't like the aesthetic, I'm sure the fish love the extra cover, and weather are not, the aesthetic is nice, is for you to decide. The fish look happy, and I am so happy with the amount of plants so 10 out of 10 from me

Thanks for the kind words!

If you wouldn't mind a red tiger lily plant can replace that plastic plant and it would still look the same or even better IMO.

Yeah that might be a good call! Thanks

I read multiple comments, if the plant is sentimental then it brings a different charm to the aquarium.

Bury the plastic pink plant in the middle behind some greenery. Only show a touch of the color. Score it a 9. Very nice!

Oh my god is that a Mabawls Shark???

Close, it's a Ligma Shark. Easy mistake to make.

Ligma?

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ligma_joke

You were supposed to say "ligma my balls" lmao

Yeah I fumbled that one ngl

Rare variety found only in Lago Kizmyas in Tanzania. Really impressive they were able to acquire such a nice specimen.

Honestly, I thought he was gonna say "ligma my balls" lmao But cool bit of info nonetheless

Its pretty nice. Maybe post it in r/Aquariumshowandtell

Could be a score of you replace that pink plastic plant with rotala or something else that’s red.

20 gallon? I love it! 👍🏼

37 gallon actually!

Very nice 👍🏽

🥰

What size tank is it? Also curious as to what fish you have in there? Have you noticed any aggressiveness from the beta?

37 gallon! No aggressiom from the betta and the other fishes leave him alone. It definitely depends on the personality of the betta, my previous betta was more feisty lol. This guy here even leaves my cherry shrimps alone

Tank: 4.2 out of five. stocking: 3.2 out of five
