Yes, I like those and it would definitely give a more natural feel, but the maintenance is more than I can handle.
Maybe I can grow some on mesh that can be taken out? It's something I might experiment with once I've got this going.

Yeah. That would work great. 😊

Some gratuitous close ups

2 week(ish) update
Things are going fairly well. Most things are just settling in still, but there's been some nice growth from the Red Pearl. The Stricta has grown well, but has melted quite a bit too.
I've also chucked in 3 squares of moss. Haven't decided what to do with these yet, but they'll probably end up on the rocks that are closest to the light, as they'll be algae growing there for sure.
The Crypts that weren't planted in substrate are melting rapidly. One of them looks pretty far gone, so I would be surprised if this one comes back. The Eriocaulon just melted completely and is the first casualty of the tank.
The frog bit looked like it wasn't enjoying the flow, so I've put a nylon line across the water surface, which keeps them moving, but not in the strong flow.
I'm also wondering whether a black or mirrored would look good. Haven't got a mirror yet, but here's what a black background looks like.
And that's about it...everyone's advice is always welcome!

Wow, your hardscape skills are insane! Very beautifull rock work. What rocks are those? Elderly rocks? Very nice indeed!
