Im not happy :no: :no: :no:

The tank doesnt seem to have any depth to it and it just doesnt seem right.

Anyone any ideas?


BTW it was set up today.
 
Have you thought about putting a back ground on and maybe growing some java moss on the rocks so that they dont look so hard. :nod:
 
I agre with cardinal sinner, a background and some java moss.
Maybe a couple of small plants at the front of the cave to break it up a bit.
On the whole though, I like it. :)
 
Nice tank! Like the rockwork. I think if you are looking for more depth you need more smaller leafed plants. This will make it look like the scale has been reduced.

Whats going in it?
 
I like it alot. If you want to change it... maybe try replacing a couple of the rocks on the right with a nice piece of driftwood or try a different type/texture of rocks like big rounded pebbles.
 
tank looks good.

If it were my tank I would
1. change the sword in the front left with the one right next to your filter i.e. smaller in the front next to the rocks, and the bigger one would hide the filter better
2. Moss on the cave would be a great addtion
3. maybe lose the rock thats all alone next to the cave and replave with soth driftwood
4. move the thermastat to the back corner
 
Yeah i would move the sword to the right nearer the back, lose the rock at the front near the middle, grow moss on the cave and grow something like a few bunches of crypts in the foreground, promising start though.
 
I like your tank, give it time to clear and grow a bit, maybe add some smaller bushier plants around the base of the rocks, as somone had mentioned earlier, java moss would look great on those slate stones.
 
it's a good start!

if i were you i'd loose the big stone to the right of the cave completely and leave some bare sand for the occupants to play in.

what's going to be living there?
 
some java mss on the stones and some smal plants in the foreground would help alot, cryt wendetti is one of my faverotes...
 
I like it, and the only thing I would do is add more height at the back right corner, either with wood or another rock....
 
i like it, i'd take out the stones on teh right and replace them with smaller ones, looks a bit cramped with such big stones in.

then a bit of moss on the slate cave and it'll look great :D
 
I think your tank has got great potential too. May I'd change the cave bit. Being so angular, it looks a bit man-made. Perhaps moss would help, I agree, also, more plants would make things a bit more wild. As everyone else has been saying, what's going in it?
