Need help, which piece of DW should I use? - Page 2 - Aquarium Advice

Here are the pics I think i need the second piece we will see. The first pic is the before pic. i had to redo the cave to accomodate the DW. I boiled it and no Tannins which was cool and it sunk right away each piece is about 8 lbs. And hard as a rock...

And the DW had a large recess in it that i filled with gravel and some Glosso and some java moss. Hopefully ill get a cool waterfall effect from it. you can see it kinda towards the top of the DW

looks awesome! I do think the sdcond piece will complete it though!

What if you placed the other piece on its side in behind your rock structure? It would make the rock easier to see and it would mean you'd have that leftish area of the tank as your focal point. Then, you could still do something on the other side of the tank, possibly focusing as you have already started doing on creating depth through plant height.

the second piece is HUGE my 55 is only about 18 inches deep and the cave takes up 14+ of it. but not a bad idea with a smaller piece. Thanks.
