Hey TPT. In need of your scaping expertise here! I'm not so happy with how things turned out. All suggestions surely welcome! I'm worried about the steepness of the slopes in the long run as well. Your input is surely appreciated! I may head back out to the store to get one more piece since these 4 aren't doing it for me. *Sorry for the sub par iphone pic*

Maybe take the piece on the left and bring it to the right corner (maybe stood up) to add some height.
Is that dirt on the tank or scratches ?

I did try adding that piece to the right but the left was pretty void. My LFS only had smaller pieces left so I just may do as you suggested and just grab a smaller to place on the left in its place.

The specs are dirt, there are some scratches on the back acrylic but once filled they're hardly noticeable.

I'd have to agree with em'. Other than that it looks like a pretty cool setup.
Im trying to get my hands on some not too pricey rocks to do something pretty much similar to that, but on just one side of the tank (its a 20L).
Just need some plants in there....!! (Once filled with water, obviously..)

at about 17:15 James is setting the slopes. I think may help you.

Now that's a great idea. I'm going to have to run out and get some pieces and redo this whole thing. Thanks.

You're Frank, right? From the swap?
