Journal 75L Hygrophila polysperma white display

[Dennis Wong]

I came into some Hygrophila polysperma "white" by Tropica recently. Grew it out and it seems to be able to be shaped into good midground bushes so I decided to create a layout to showcase it. Contemplated whether to use it as the only white plant in the tank, but decided to use some Anubias white petite as well so that the white polysperma doesn't stand out awkwardly.

Mostly finalized the layout for this tank.

White plants are difficult to use in layouts. They tend to stick out awkwardly and often do not feel natural to neighboring plants. They also difficult to photograph. The twin peaks of the wood are too similar in height, I will try lowering the right one by sinking it further into the substrate during the next water change. At the same time, I'm testing to see if I can alter the structure of the left wood by growing plants on it.

What kind of moss do you use and what is your typical routine for taking care of those?
