Need input on this hardscape layout please!

[Gafi]

Need some input on this layout. There are 4 rocks on the left and 3 on the right. Fire away!

[fplata]

They seem a bit low for the tank

[Gafi]

really? nothing else from anyone.....perhaps I will mound the substrate higher then to fix the height issue?

[nanobettaman]

The pointy rock closer to the middle on the left side looks unnatural. Maybe swap the two big ones on the left side?

[Gafi]

you mean swap the two left ones? and point it the same way?

[Gafi]

how about this?

[nanobettaman]

that looks way better imo. Are you doing a dry start or? What plants do you plan to use?

Edit: maybe move the right hand side further right, create more of a plain between it and the center rocks.

[Gafi]

ultimatley, this will be a HC tank only.....however, it will house Stem plants for a little while, until I can get a ghood established carpet of HC

Do you mean move all the rocks on the right further to the right?

[nanobettaman]

That will look great!

Yes, rocks on the right further right

[Gafi]

ok changed it up a bit....let me know what you think of this....i raised the right pointer rock up a bit and added a tiny rock to the bottom right.

[nanobettaman]

That looks good. I like that you changed it so that the left and right side rocks are at different elevations. There's a nice flow that takes your eye from the center, to the right, and then across to the left.

[Gafi]

a little change here....let me know what people think (these two pics are the same layout just diff angles)

[Gafi]

ok...perhaps the final layout....what do you think....would be nice to get some input

The large stone in the front right is really distracting
