Thank you for the advice. Will keep the staurogyne.sp and hope they grow tall enough.
Right now the Elatine Triandra had overtake the staurogyne.sp. Will do some trimming to spread the Elatine Triandra.

Very beautiful, I like the rocks!!!!



I think if you top up the foreground with some more substrate, so that it does not look so flat.
Maybe you can top up so that you can create a valley in between and use the rocks as focal points on each side of the valley? You can place 2 of the smaller rocks on the left and 3 of the bigger rocks on the right, with the valley or path snaking in the middle ( off centre?) think Golden Rule...
5 feet planted discus tank, turquoise, melon, leopard, blue diamond. Two 1 feet Shrimp tanks with FRS & CRS.

Or you can have a bigger ( Master ) rock with 2 smaller rocks ( disciple ) kind of arrangement. Your current format with multiple rocks surrounding a planting reassemble a design i saw vivadarium 2010 in netherland but that design have a Master rock with above 2 disciple rocks carrying it and other smaller rocks forming a circle.
But of coz, as long you like it,there is no wrong or right way coz end of the day,the one watching the tank most will be you![]()

Thank you Bro, this is like my original thinking. However not able to find a good master rock yet.
Another way I am thinking of arranging is like what bro benjidog mentioned, shift the rocks to both sides and leave the center more spacious.
Will do it after my exams in end Nov if I can find suitable rocks.





Still have not found new rocks. Changing the layout to as such with the exisiting.

Thank you for your comment.
Still thinking of how to make it better. Looking for some green rotala sp for the background and also nicer dragon or beehive rock for better placement.
