Which one you like better?
 
After for sure. A couple big plants in the back would really set it off...
 
Sand gives a much nicer look. On cleaning it there is good and bad news. The good news is that everything sits on top and is easy to siphon off. The bad news is everything sits on top and shows easily. Black sand looks nicer but at $25 for 20 pounds, play sand works real well.
