love the natural looking tank, is the sand maybe a lil deep?

I'm not sure of how you feel about fake plants, but they do make some nice ones. No sunlight required.

im not a big fan of fake plants. i added some moss, bolbitis and an anubias plant in my tank. i like its current look. Looks very much like some river bed.

Or you could also grow pathos plants out of the top, the roots give it a more natural look with the wood, also helps with filtration

[kevinfleming21]

Ahh if you have access to egg crate, you can cut it to fit like a lid, this is how I have done it and a few others,
