Stealing all of the ideas I have in mind for the 240? LOL
I like the idea of a multi or bi level substrate seperated by a low rock wall made out of silconed together flat rocks or slate. The higher side can have tall plastic plants in the back (species allowing) and the lower can have a differant substrate. I plan to include a couple of pvc pleco caves in my walls benieth the higher substrate and behind the rock wall with an opening in the face of it.
 
I always use rounded river stones and half bury them in the substrate to make my tanks have a riverbottom look. Im just not comfortable stacking a bunch of rocks or stones in a glass enclosure, so I create most of the cover with driftwood.

Yeah.....my fish knock the rocks around pretty hard sometimes! Maybe i'll glue them to each other?
