Thank you for your compliments, I think it would look better with more rooted plants and would love to add some; but it might be very hard for me to maintain those as my sand substrate is not so deep and all of my geophagus will just dig them up before they can develop. Gotta stick with those rhizome plants that I can attatch to structure

I had the same problem with African Cichlids I would try Java Ferns, African water fern and some Java moss attached to the wood and stone
