What's the small grass-like plant at the front? I want something like that for mine.

Nice, the crypts look really healthy.

But everything would grow alot quicker if you got rid of the airstone.

OK thanx, I could do with something like that in the foreground.

Do you use a CO2 diffuser? I'm thinking of getting one of those little Sera ones for my tank, or maybe just make a DIY one.

Looking good! Those onion bulbs are huge!
If you dont use CO2 I would strongley recomend it, only started myself in the last few months and its working great and your onoin bulbs will absorb all their energy in their bulbs and die off.
Or if you do have CO2 just forget everything I have just said
