You asked for opinions so here my twopence worth.I dont like the wood in the middle sticking right up,could you not angle it somehow and maybe put it off centre?
It looks rather.........err.............phallic.

 

[Ginge]

Very true i agree i based it on my own physical features, BTW the tanks 18" high. Joke.

Looks good Ginge, I don`t know that much about planted but as a start so far so good.

I agree about the wood being too central
You need to put it off centre and better slanted. Use it to divide the space visually into 2 thirds 1 third, that usually looks better. Same principle as is often used for composing a landscape photograph.

Ginge, get those plants stuck in there and your light on a timer!


by the time you get back theyll be well under way to rooting and growing so youll have more to play with

plants really arent that hard.


Does look good tho, i like the way youve done the sand.
