    opps. i though you had marimo moss ball as sacpe in the first picture.

    for the 2nd photo, you might wants a higher slope at the back to give you a more 3D view.

    if the sand suppose to be road or river, then you might want to make the behind narrower. That will give the impression that it is further away.

    By the way, you should spread your plant instead of one big clump. Especially those foreground

    It is not good idea to put coral rock, unless you purposely want to increase pH/kH

    You're right. No wonder it doesn't look right. haha.

    These coral rocks are what I found from LFS, small enough to be used in my 2ft tank. I will monitor the pH closely.
    Thanks for the heads up!
