Cheers guys... I quite like the BB Algae growth on the roots... Makes the tank look more natural. 
GETTING 4" Rhom (Advice please)

I'm in the same situation you are. I've had my 4" rhom now for around 4 weeks. Mine hasn't adjusted as well to his new home though. I had a few barbs and mollies in his tank before I brought him home. I didn't feed him for the first 2 weeks, he steadily picked off the tank mates. I now feed him pieces of shrimp every 2nd day. He hides in the corner all day and only ventures out when the lights go out. Even then he spends a lot of time trying to swim through the glass.. I notice mine is no where near as tall bodied as yours.
Try dimming your light until it adjusts to your tank - you could move the light to one end as well. Give the little guy the chance to choose the amount of lighting and it usually makes a difference. Fish love structure, and the main structure in your tank is also the brightest so this kind of cancels the fish's desire to go there. Although I do like your display, your P may like it more if you change it up.
Any update pics?
You asked about growth, I'd expect like half an inch a year after the first year. Painfully slow
