Hi guys looking for some advice on how to improve on this tank, any comments are welcome

Actually its meant to be viewed from both sides, but the rubin on the right grew so big that it looks horrible from the other side. Pardon the poor pic quality too, not too good at taking photographs

(any advice on photography will be helpful too)

Looks quite good already. Is it an open-top layout ? MH lighting ? (Looks liked Dupla's style)
May be some more fern and anubias to fill the left/right corner ?

I think you need to get more stable hands.
It's giving me a headache.

oops sorry weirong. Yeah stable hands will be good.

quot : "I think you need to get more stable hands. "

Or have your camera on a tripot and put on auto.

BTW with open-top, do your fish jumping out frequently ? Mine is also open-top and over the years had the following casualty :
- few yamato
- one small discus (painful lost....)
- one large SAE but was saved quick enough that it survives till today.

Now I added 3" wide clear acrylic strips around the edge of the tank. So far so good.
