I've let my 90g stagnate for the past year. I love watching my fish but I have zero drive to do anything with them. So for now I just want to put the idea out there before I go into detail. Is there anyone who would enjoy decorating a strangers aquarium?

Definitely! That would be my dream, as long as the materials were provided, I would love to do that! I'm medium experienced, and I truly love designing aquariums, were u thinking planted? Cichlids? Tropical?  I would do whatever u want

Alright! Heres current photos.

Fish: 1 pearl gourami, endlers, 2 super red kribs, 3 celestial pearl danio, 5 salt and pepper cories, 1 bristle nose pleco, something like 10 kuhli loaches, 2 Siamese Algae Eater and too many assassin snails.
Plants:Java moss, xmas moss, java fern, anubias and anubias petite, water sprite, 1-3 tiny pieces of buce, mutilated marimo, rotala rotundifolia, algae
Plants haven't done well even though I love them. I'm not sure how strong my lighting is. No C02. Flourish used.
Supplies: Not a whole lot of wood, 2 "trees". Crapton of rocks, though. A decent amount of white quartz.

Originally I was trying to make a zelda scene. But after failing 3 times to find a sealant that works on my handmade ornaments, I kinda gave up that route. At this point, I'd be happy with a natural setting. I'm really not picky at all. I'd be willing to sink another $50 or so into making it look pretty. Lastly, I'm located at k2g 2r7, near Algonquin college. I think thats all the info that may be useful. If you are both still interested in helping me (thank you!), I guess I'll flip a coin.

I'll defer to Christianloug on this one. Wrong end of the city for me.

I never heard back on when I could do it

My apologies. I have social and general anxiety disorder and kinda freaked out at the idea of a stranger over. ._.  Really sorry.

No need to apologise, I hope you managed to set the tank up in the end :)
