u really need to get more plants or some wood or stone so u can fiddle with layout issues. Only from there can we throw in useful comments.

I spot many fast growers here. If you are doing high light, you will find a forest very soon. Don't worry, planted is a very interesting hobby. Soon, you will find yourself indulging in many other beautiful plants.

1: Over head filtration might not be appropriate as yr plants might be slanted to the left due to the strong outlet flow. Also, the use of a strong ohf depletes the amount of co2 in the planted tank greatly. i really cannot find any other reason why yr plant is growing towards the left.


2. When planting stem plants, try to space them out a more, as compared to what you have done in the pics. Trim them to abt 10cm ( for me i make it shorter) equally, do not hesitate to remove rotting plants. I have noticed uneven growth in yr stemmed plants, indicating they were not trimmed to approximately same length in the beginning. This serves to give a more appealing look.


3. Try to plant the stemmed plants in clusters instead of in a single row from what is illustrated in the pics.


Overall, it is a good try ! keep it up~

3. Try to plant the stemmed plants in clusters instead of in a single row from what is illustrated in the pics.
