All the plants were recollected by me (except java moss) in streams and lagoons of Uruguay, like the sand, the rocks and the laterite. The idea was to arm something pleasant with low budget, low technology and low maintenance.
Was too easy not to plant the echinodorus knowing the large size of this plant, but I added them because I liked, therefore, I did the cube knowing that its viability in the time was going to be determined by these plants, that is the cube is going away to disarm the day that I has to transplant echinodorus due to his size to a greater aquarium for his optimal development.
