Since the decision has been made I'll just say this last rock set up looks really nice.
Was just wondering about the stone, hate to be a downer but would anything like sandstone change anything about your water? Actually I was going to buy a nice piece of rock yesterday and the guy told me not to because it was sandstone. I hope not because I like your rock very much, looks super in there.

I'm not 100% such if it's sandstone. From what I read sandstone may raise ph some, just have to test it. Also I've read that you can do a vinegar test, if the it frizzes on the rock, don't use. If not, it'll be safe, but always best to test the water.

Currently getting ready to do a test on a piece in a bucket, planning to allow it to set for day, test the water, refill, test, etc..

I like #1 as there are nice areas to place tall plants behind the rocks Anubias nana onto the rocks and low grassy plants as a carpet in front.

Don't forget to add a background to the tank - either a picture or a painting job from the outside. One should not be able to see all the hardware behind the tank.
Happy decorating.
