Soooo, I need some help aquascapng my 30 gallon. I don't have a lot of money to really work with, more like 0. I'll provide a couple of pictures of my tank, though, so you CAN see what I have. I also have a tube of silicone so I can create awesome stuff if need be.

Whats in my tank right now: 6ish moneywort, 4 wisteria. Can add atleast two more from other tanks. Two LARGE pieces of rock that's visible. Atleast 4 larger, flat, rocks that are not visible. 3 smaller flat stones. A pile of round fist sized stone (I have probably 8-9 in total, atleast 5 are in use already in the tank). Two long thin pieces of wood. One long thicker piece of wood, 2 smallers thin 'sticks', one thick medium sized piece of wood. I like rock and wood.

Here's a few pictures from various angles. Sorry, cell phone pictures.

Well I think amazon swords look great which is what I have in my 40 gallon freshwater so I would recommend you add at least 2 if you want a nice river style look because that's what your aquascape looks like.

Thank you. I wasn't actually trying for anything, it was more just thrown together with "Oooh, this'll look neat!" Now I actually want to plan it out and do a change to it, move stuff around/ take stuff out/ add stuff type of thing.

I have swords in my 29 gal and they keep dying and coming back.

I would get some flame moss and tie to the driftwood in the back that is going across the tank.

Then some willow or xmass moss for that driftwood that is vertical it will create an underwater tree effect.

As you have no money to spend, I would group the plants together on one side of the tank, then arrange the stones to create a rock pathway. Then in the opposite side to back middle add you large rocks.
