Hyrgro is real easy plant but you may need to keep it trimmed not sure if it will out grow your tank or not i was aware of a small type, the baby tears and hair grass may not do well without co2 and high light but keep us updated on how yours does also might want to swap the hair grass with the stauorgyn it looks like its kinda shaded by the wood, Stauoryn repens stays shorter and bushier under high lets but can grow fine in low light but will get a little taller and not as bushy, the alternathera is a great plant the tops of the leaves stay green in lower light but get bronze/red in higher light, I'm not an expert but i figured I'd give my thoughts maybe help ya out, if the baby tears don't work out a good easy ground cover plant is dwarf Sagittaria  or crypt parva both cheap and easy to come by

very nicely done for a first attempt. I thought it was at least a 10 gallon so was surprised when you said it was a 5 gallon. I would give this aquarium an 8/10. I may be a 9/10 if i saw it in person but from the video it looks a little to "green" for me.

i picked it up from my local LFS. they got a shipment in and i purchased 4 pieces as i don't see this type of wood very often. love the deep red color it shows.

thanks alot man, i did a ton of reading and hours of video watching checking out other peoples tanks :) im finding right now the hardest part is not the layout, but balancing the tank so the plants grow and you don't get algea....

Hey man, I really like what you did with the tank it looks great. These tanks are the easiest to scape but I'd say you did a great job. The wood is such a nice piece. I'm about to rescape my Spec V to be a high tech tank I'll post it on reddit to show my progress.

I am such a huge fan of spider driftwood, we have some other kinds but this red spider is our fav by far, we have 4 other pieces not in tanks yet just because we liked the look and know we will use them haha
