Aquariums: What would make this aquarium look a lot better?
I just feel like it's missing something. I just set this up yesterday but I think it looks awkward ngl, maybe the rock placement?

This is also my first aquarium and my city has awful water so that’s been fun to deal with chemically 😐

In my opinion the floating plants block too much light

Agree.

I’d say a light that shines on the entire length of the tank to begin with. Not only the middle

Just more plants, and give them time to grow in. You do not have a lot of plants right now, and they look similar.
I like the piece of wood in the middle, but I think it looks awkward by now. I think it would look really great if there were more plants, the piece of wood would add depth to your tank and I see it giving of some natural, ‘mysterious’ feel.
But a lot depends on what other species you want to add to your tank. But as long you won’t keep fish you can’t keep together with plants, I always think adding more plants is the right way to go: it looks good, and most species will appreciate it as well (hiding and resting places, nest for eggs, …), and it might help your water quality. You will gain experience over time, including about aquascaping, and your tank will change too. Enjoy the journey!
