Some ferns under neath the thickets of stems in the middle ground might be nice.
See Jason's B's example above.
The stems top out and form a canopy, this shades the ferns.
You will need to trim aggressively.
Stems I'd leave nor lower than 5" from the top of the tank to provide cover.
This tank is similar to yours: similar size and too much light(the 150W example)
ADA AS, Rena 4 canister filter, internal bulkhead plumbing, EI dosing, 50% weekly water changes, and aggressive pruning.
It's more of a Dutch scape in most respects.
