It looks nice! In the first photo (tank) you may need to watch the anubias. They are a plant that doesn't like lots of light. If you start some floating plants that will help shade them. I've found at my lfs a floating plant called "frog bit" and it's so cool. It's in the profiles here on this site.

Just because animals can't talk, does not mean they should not be heard

You do a nice a job ! Wish I had your eye for planting.
I'll just repeat some info I've seen here and elsewhere, keep and eye on the mondo grass (not an aquatic-will start to decay). The bamboo plant should have its leaves out of the water.
Again, nice job.

I was sucked in by the mondo grass also. Let's face it, it looks really nice in an aquarium. I have had mine for about four months and it's still in good shape. Nothing wrong with taking a wait and see approach.
I got my mondo grass at Petsmart also. When I asked the young lady if it was an aquatic plant, her eyes kind of glazed over and she said "it could be". That should have been my clue. I guess I just really wanted it to work out.
i know, they assume it is but don't do the research

Did I just saw bamboo...
nice tanks and that root broken in half looks awesome. Plants will grow up in time, they look nice so far
apart from that tank with pink substrate unless you want to put in there Alice from Wonderland

the tank with the colorful substrate is my daughter's tank. she is 2 and picked it out herself. personally i think she did a GREAT job at helping me put things where she wanted them. especially for her age.
