Thank you!! I've always admired aquascaped tanks, but I kill everything green so I wanted to see if I could recreate it with fake plants
I actually found most of it on amazon:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00BUFSKYW/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o09_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 - the bamboo leaves. My betta LOVES this, he's constantly up napping on the leaves. Also, I put the bulk of it under the filter & it diffuses the flow nicely so he's not getting blown around the tank.
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01N5CP1F6/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o09_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 - this was the ground cover. One mat was more than enough for the full tank - I just cut it up into smaller shapes & trimmed down a few wispy pieces to try and make it look more natural.
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01N6ISXKP/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o09_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1 - the wood was the most expensive part; there were a lot others that were cheaper and I cringed hard at spending $30 on a stick lol - but this
one seemed closest to what I was looking for
Nice.
There are a few ways to add height to a 'scape. You can stack wood and rock (creates lots of hiding places for bottom dwellers); athough you'd have to get creative to go very high with it and still have it be stable. Can also use longer pieces of wood with lots of branches (manzanita is good for this) that reach towards the surface). Or you can use taller plants. Live plants could be difficult with your setup (although you can always anchor some java fern on top of your hardscape for extra height); but they make XL sized fake ones.
The cloudiness will go away. I assume you're going fishless cycling? Should be long gone before the tank is established.
