Agreed that siliconing and covering with sand/rock makes a more natural look but is that really going to be important in a bare bottom tank? Not trying to start an argument, just an observation.

That's what I was thinking, since the tank is blue fiberglass the PVC almost matches
I am only going to use one in the bare-bottom tank, so I think I will try coating the other one. I have some play-sand I use for sandblasting, but it's not great looking stuff - I may look for something nicer... Maybe fine aquarium gravel or pool sand?
Give them the DIY foam / cement background treatment to make them look like rocks. Shoot them with GreatStuff foam just as a base for the cement to stick to. Then the usual treatment.
