lovely tank.

if you were looking at changes, I would suggest more plants. Some smaller ones in the front, zig zagging around a bit, some taller towards the back. Remember the rule of 3 - i.e. groups of 3 look natural. The taller towards smaller arrangement will add depth and the zig zagging draws the eye around the tank. A carpet of plants might also look well on one side.

I might also change the alignment of the slate caves so that they run in opposite diagonal directions and look at creating height (rocks maybe) in each back side corner of the tank.

What fish are in there - would they like a nice centrepiece of driftwood ? You have the tank for a really nice big piece. Think of your tank as having a left, middle and right from the front - don't put a feature right squarely in any of the thirds but have it accross the imaginary dividing line, or two lines if its a really big e.g. piece of wood.

these are of course just suggestions - you're doing a great job on the tank.

Great tank Bryon! I also think it would look even better with more plants and driftwood. I agree with Coler... don't have it too uniform and don't forget to create some open space as well (especially as your plants start to grow in).

I voted for more plants, but I don't think you should take out any rock. :headbang2:
