Default my completed 75g

Some pics of the 75 gallon that I finished about a month and a half ago. I is really my first attempt at a true background and i'm pretty happy with how it turned out. Any suggestions are welcome!

Looks like a galac....

Great looking viv BTW, how tall is it once you had the substrate in there? Just thinking the Alocasia (if that's what it is, cant really tell with the small pics) might get too big if it gets much taller, but if its already at 2 feet then I wouldn't worry about it.

Very nice looking tank!

What do you have growing on the ground? Some type of moss?

Looks good. I'd think about putting down some leaf litter in there. Frogs love it :P

thanks guys! The ground cover is Black Jungle tropical moss. I love the stuff, it grows like crazy under good light. I have been thinking about putting some leaf litter in the tank to give it a bit more natural feel. Oh, and I know the alocasia will get big, eventually it will be a nice house plant, but for now it is doing great.
