Thanks Emg. I couldn't see spending the money for a lava rock on my last tank, but with this one, I was into it so much already. I really like the rock too, it has many nooks and cranies and holes that are connected. The loaches love it. Also, the left and right sides have "shelves" where the fish can hide, but you can still see them. I'm not much for pink either but wanted some color and to "soften" the rock. "Glued" on the vine with aquarium silicone.

That tree stump is resin? That thing is soooo cool! Where did you get it if you don't mind telling?

Oh yeah, whole tank looks great!
