I think you have A LOT of light. How long is your photo period? How long have you had it set up? You need to be dosing ferts. Maybe you already are. Your hygro difformis is gonna take off like crazy!

It looks like your java is buried. The rhizome needs to be above the substrate. It needs the water through it.

I can see it's gonna be nice as the hygro difformis grows up. You might want to try to tie the sides together a little more. You have all the rocks on one side and all the wood on the other. It's almost like it's 2 tanks. If you mixed it up a bit it might even look better! I think you have made a good start.
