Nah cause I'm not real smart at this whole thing yet real rocks sand and driftwood are the limits for me... I'm scared of them

Nice colored sandstones .. how big is the tank? That looks like a good sized stone, should look impressive. As far as live plants are concerned ... wait a month or so down the road and maybe do some low maintenance plants like Anubias and Amazon Sword ... I assume your going FW.
