Ah, just a bit more!

You might have heard of it before, but there's a concept called the rule of thirds. It's pretty integral to high quality art, it puts the focus of an image on at least one of the "thirds" (imaginary lines through the image.

Here's a link: http://digital-photography-school.com/rule-of-thirds

To get it right, I tend to draw on my tanks with dry erase markers.

I'd go to the left , only because naturally our eyes read from left to right. The rock is the focal point so your eyes are drawn to that and then continue "reading" to the right , so you miss the left side of the rock.... Just my 2 cents !

Ha ha ! It's your tank, go with what works best for you. I think it looks great regardless, the rocks have some great detail and will be complimented even more once the plants fill.

Thanks, I'm trying to impress my mom with my scaping skills so I can set up a similar tank at her office, I'm trying to have it as simple yet elegant as possible.

They're boraras brigattae, but they're dis colored because of the move to the new tank.



<3 the sand though!

Thanks! I do too!
