I like the tank a lot, though if I may make a suggestion the group of driftwood and stems plants in the center is just that; centered. If you were to offset it ever so slighty I think you'd really have a nice layout. It's nice as is, don't get me wrong.
Yep , centered a little bit...

I made already a dozen other lay-outs and this was one of the hardest to do.
I never did one with a sort of - island concept.
The main problem is to keep the island in balance.

If I trimm the stargrass on the right, the visual effect will be that the island is placed " more to the left".
Keep you thumb on the right stargrass and see the result...

Tonight I will tink it over and maybe trimm the stargrass and make some new pictures tomorrow.
