Wood is nice. Plant some rosette plants around the base of the driftwood, otherwise the whole scape will look flat and weird.

Nice piece of wood, I like such overarching shape. I notice you got a number of cardinal tetras inside, do prepare some hiding place (for your shrimps....no matter how most fishes tend to disturb the shrimps in darkness.

Why not cover the entire piece of wood in moss? I think it'd look really nice once it's grown out...

Terence,

His gravel are not suitable for rosette plants (too bad)

The only plant choice are anubias, ferms,
