If you are going for Moss tank, are you going to add CRS or Sakuras in !
And add a cooling fan? Becauase the GEX soil (poi chai in pills soil) looks like the plant (Green packet?) which can be used for CRS/Sakura.

Sorry if i am trying to poison you to spend more.

Are you going to use hang on filters?

Update soon, your journal looks interesting.
