    First of all, what kind of scape are you looking for? From the placement of the sand and soil, i can see you're trying a create a separation but the woods with moss are simply covering up your foreground.

    Re: Suggestions for my planted tank?

    I like the first one better. Look likes you are using pink lighting, which may not be suitable for planted tank. (Use something like 6500k lighting)
    Peanut8787 is correct.
    First question, what scape are you aiming for?
    From the second picture, suggest to create a "path" (1/3 from left side of tank) going into the tank to create depth.

    The red lotus and the plants beside it will try to outgrow each other.

    IMHO your lighting is too pinkish.... I would hv more white/ daylight to accentuate your green plants....

    agree with the light, its burning my eye

    The easiest way to scape is to copy what other people do, after a while you will build your skill and make your own style.
