Nice arrangement on the black woods. Somehow feel the bogwood root structure doesn't quite blend in though

The colour contrast is too much. Wonder if there is any methods to soften the effect.

Was thinking of coiling some plants around the branches.

Very natural feel, either use warmer lights or put a top layer of darker decorative sand.

50% Water change weekly.

The more difficult portion is the cleaning of the sand substrate during water change. Need to use the water tube to hover over the sand to suck out the dirt.
