What Do You Recommend?

[lemond68]

Just bought new aquarium and set it up as you see in the picture. I think it looks sparse... what would you add to make it look "natural" ie a brook, lake, etc and aesthetically pleasing?

more light or dark rocks, more wood, more plants?

artistic recommendations appreciated.

I would add a plain background, some more plants and wood.

i second that and maybe some slate stacked always an eye pleaser in my eyes

you need a big eyecatcher in the middle, tall and unusual

Maybe a light colored slate tower? like a house of cards in the middle?

Not right in the middle; just left or right of centre.

I'd suggest a black background, some more plants in the back left and right corners and some sort of slate formation just off centre (right or left, like vinylman said).

Definately more plants though, live ones. Personally I'd go for Java Fern.

I agree with the background, brings focuss into the tank rather then through it I wouldnt agree with slate because I think towers look unsightly but certainly some more plants/wood
