I got my girlfriend into the fish keeping hobby recently, and gave her my old 10 gallon and some decorations that I used to have. I set it up, and the next day I come back to see it, she did an awesome job aquascaping. The decorations are all fake, but man, she made it look great compared to the way I had it!

Very nice. Nothing wrong with artificial stuff.

I'd get her some fake jungle val, hygrophilia or other long plant for that back corner and let it run up the back and across the top somewhat and another for in front of the filter tube.
 
Your girl did a great job!! Looks good. And I agree nothing wrong with artificial things. I like the natural look and it looks good.

lol I have to sake though... Is it on a bath towel?

Yeah it's on a bath towel haha! When I moved it from my house to hers, the tank was almost completely stuck to the stand. I almost broke the darn thin trying to get It off! So we put a towel under it to keep it from sticking. And her parents freak out about water spilling, so the towel helps from drips!

The piece of wood in the back is real, we found it on the beach. But everything else is fake! :)
