Looks good - and you chosen a good style too - Ashy Range kinda' style with the rocks and driftwood position.

What you could need is more debth, if you had used some sloping the tank would look bigger.

i just think of in the long run, i will end up using step 2 more. so i just start straight to step 2.
i think step 1 and step 2 the difference is only concentration of mix between trace element and iron.

i actually wanted to do more slope. but i did a mistake by place the diftwood too inside the substrate
causing it to decrease in height so i cant really do more slope effect.
i still have some aquasoil powder, maybe should put all in.
