Critique my hardscape My second aquascape in development.

[notmysign]

I'm working on the hardscape after tearing down my first aquascape ever when I had a fault lever on my pump. I now have a small 33L to house my shrimps and Otto's.
What I'm working with is loa rocks and redmoore roots. Anything I can improve?

I've never Aquascaped properly with wood but what I do know is that when the wood fits perfectly over a rock it looks incredible. It creates the impression that it actually grew over the rock making a much more natural Scape. See if any rock fit the bends of the wood -HypeBuce

Looking very good as if nature created it. My only concern is that one small rock front LH corner it looks completely out of place.

When you add the substrate make sure there are pockets of the substrate for planting.

That stone was just leftover
It is hard to see but there is pockets between all stones

notmysign,

That makes it even easier to leave it out.

I have made some adjustments to the stones + moved some of the wood.
What do you guys think?
