That is a really nice scape. I really like how well the wood and rocks go together.

Looks great!

A demanding plant if you want to keep it short, as an example here is my 10 gallon tank.
going on three weeks and with regular daily maintenance, I can keep the plant from growing and still keep its beauty.

A method testing tank.

Thanks, i have kept this plant & found it to be a weed, I can just imagine you would have to be on top of your trimming.
