    you need to take photo from the front and show the tank border. Otherwise difficult to judge the height

    Opticube tank from east ocean. Choose the cabinet laminate similar to the shelves laminate.

    Sorry. What I meant was that the tank cabinet's laminate was selected to suit my friend's home shelves' laminate color. The manufacturer has a whole catalogue of laminate.

    It is a nice scape.I would suggest making a second master rock at the left side. And your main master rock is too straight, maybe collapse it a bit to the right, make it doesn't look so vertical. And add a bit more soil to the back to create height.

    Cheers

    Thanks for the useful suggestion. I will try to find a second master rock and rearrange the formation. Will put up the new photo for comments.
