How about on the far left and right sides some big bits of bogwood, with some tall plants underneath them so that the leaves flow over the wood, I think a nice one is micro sword (lilaeopsis brasiliensis), and maybe some java fern behind it, and then in the middle some tall bits of slate that are put in at tee-pee sort of shape, with an opening facing the front pane of glass, as if it were a door, with some riccia growing on it, and then either side maybe some amazon sword plants..

Hope it helps..
