Very nice, it should grow in well. I would suggest a piece of driftwood or a bigger rock, but that is just my opinion.

The rock is more or less just left-over from when I housed German Blue Rams in this tank. They would lay their eggs on the rock, and the current from the filter flowed right over them, so it worked out well. I'm considering tieing Riccia or some moss to it, just to test the method out.

I agree it should grow into a lovely aquatic garden, but a nice large ceterpiece root or rock would really set it off. A nice branchy piece with moss all over it would be the best.. Just my opinion.. goodluck
