Finished my first real Paludarium 💚

I asked a frew days ago, if i should cover the expanding foam Background and it absolutely was the right choice. Hopefully everything will grow in nicely. Currently there are only springtails in the land-section. when everything has hioefully grown in and stabilized i will add a few snails to the water-section. I also would love to add just a few shrimps as well, if everything works out. Really happy how it turned out. Due to some bad planning by myself i had to chose a different spot for it than i had planned, so now i just need to find a suitable light for it 😅 (ignore the cable 'management' pls)

Do something with background or leave it be and continue working an the setup?

I finally had some time again to work on my newest tank. I finished the stonewall, that will hold back the land-feature and carved out the background out of black expanding foam. it contains two little places on the upper sides and will feature a small waterfall feature on the left. I do like the black, kinda lava-rock look, but what do you think? should i give it a finish with silicone and coco-fibre/something else or just leave it be and let the plants crawl along on it?
