I like the first pic better. The rocks and sand, it just looks so natural. The second pic look very "placed" IMO.
Love the black sand and I love the rocks from the first pic. I'm curious how it would look with the rocks from pic 1 in pic 2 and the added driftwood. Bet it would look killer. Like the added touch of the driftwood breaking the surface on the right side of pic 2.
Either way they both look amazing. But you asked lol so I gotta be honest
I wouldn't be me if I didn't right?
EDIT: also the 1st pic appears to be more open, from the pic anyway.
This is where I'm at now, my new canister filter will be here Thursday, so I'm gonna have to modify the rock work a bit to accommodate my intake tube, but I like it better already,

Looks awesome. Can I just make a suggestion or maybe it's advice. I can't tell from the pic but... You wanna make sure you leave the front open for open swim.
You can see here what I mean
But I will say convict, and I know you've heard this before, but your tank is the inspiration for my remodel, manly the driftwood
