Thanks so much guys!

I'm a bit split now on the future of this tank. Do I grow some tall plants at the back on the right or do I leave as is...?

My female Bettas are so happy in the thick growth but the Neons seem to prefer hanging around under the Crypts leaves.

I will also be adding a DIY CO2 system in about 2 weeks.

I was hoping you'd have someone answer this :o) I'm curious about the middle photo as I have some and don't know what it is. Maybe re-post this in the plant section if no one answers. I'm thinking MCHRkiller can ID all the plants so you might PM her.

Found that one...
Hygrophila corymbosa stricta

Still not a clue though what the two red ones are....

I currently have 5. Might round that up to 6 and leave it there, can't have too many.

Oh, and I added the CO2 generator today. I've routed it through the venturi to diffuse it. It currently makes about 1 bubble every 3-5 seconds

if I am not mistaken, bottom plant might be a species of ammania.
for the top one, look up "red myriophyllum"

It is the myriophyllum! Thanks!

It seems to grow quite quickly in my tank. Should make a nice heater hider.

Here are some of the plants currently in the tank. I have noticed significant increases in plant growth over the last month.

The Neons seem to like hanging around the crypts!

Red myriophyllum.

It is a dark reddish color in the tank. Didn't manage to replicate the colour in the pics. It is growing
