Default mt 29 gallon

Hey guys,

Here is my 29 gallon. It's partialy planted with hornwort and a little peice of moss so far but I think I am going to add a little java fern as well. I wanted some type of topwater plant too. Any suggestions?

It's got 3 cory cats, 3 gold gouramis and 1 bristlenose. What should i add?










Feedback would be appreciated!

Sorry to hear you lost the Bristlenose.
As for a top plant,
I actually like duck weed, I know alot of people don't. The other top plant I have used is water lettuce.

I also like duckweed, but it spreads like crazy and is almost impossible to get rid of.
