I like the driftwood and i use it in my tank as a visual breaking point.
one other idea i like is hanging a piece of driftwood at the top of the tank.
I've done that myself and it creates a nice effect.
Man, your fish are getting big!

ok here is the plan... few things I thought...

- increase the sand level of the tank.. it seems a little low
- try and get some fake live stones.. and try and make a inside like penn's fish tank.. but a little different.. like i dont want that shaped driftwood.. but false live rock...

- try and fix the bubble wall pipe i got from my LFS
- or even try like a broken ship or sinking ship like this one from brichter04

- also wanna do something for my background... its too plain
- also changing my light

@ askhammatt

for background.. i read Noddy's method.. and saw a couple of youtube videos of ppl doing this.. but I am not so thrilled about making it a permanent solution.. and I dont wanna use cement in my tank


i am looking for one of those fake plastic or fiber type background.. with the whole rocky feel.. which i can easily add / remove from my tank

btw.. can u put a pic of your tank here.. for my reference...
