The island looks good now bro. I think it would look better if you paste a background at the back glass wall. Either black background or frosted one will make the scape look nicer and not distractive.

Thanks for suggestions. I am putting more efforts and yet satisfied with tank and plant health. I have asked Manh to watch it closer. Brown algae is blooming

It seems like this scape has lots of slow grown plants and algae might has chance to outbreak. You might consider plant some fast growing plants or put some floating plants temporary to soak up excessive nutrients.

Ah It's because this tank is using mix ADA powersand and Manh's secret dirt, so i am letting him to monitor and do whatever he might think it's necessary. So far so good with cleaning crew

Lightning is strong and Manh is suggesting a custom build. It's a mix lighting of T5 and Metal halide and led. T5 bulbs are at the back for red stem plants, single 150w metal halide is in the center and Led in the front

Wow! What a lighting combination! That would give a boost to plant to grow then! And plenty of fertilizer and CO2 injection should be in order to have everything balance. With that speed, you will have a beautiful set up for this Lunar New Year!

No fert at all. Manh is very famous for his rich iron soil. It boosts plants growth without needing additional fertilizers. I might need to add fert later in its third month
 
I had the sails moved to my house tonight. Everything looks perfectly and I am so excited and happy with the results. for Manh and his team. It's worth for waiting such a long time

Our biggest holiday is coming in the next two weeks, and I will have more time to write longer post 'bout The Sails, from very begging to its current status. In the meantime enjoy aquascaping

Hello mate

Your tank is coming long very nicely. I like the clean look nice and simple. Hope moving the tank is not going to be a pain. Keep us posted looking forward to the next update
