Just some decor for the tank. My tanks only a 29 so I can't get to involved with the big bulky backgrounds (even though they're nice). I was thinking more like some small decor like different types of caves, rocks, plant setups, maybe ideas for aquascape, etc.

There are lots and lots out there, Megan. There are terra cotta caves designed for plecos available, and they look good covered with algae and/or java moss. Dark grey granite is available cheap, and is inert.
I'm a planted tank freak (though some would argue I'm other kinds) so I'm a driftwood/rock/cave and tons of plants guy. For your inspiration: http://www.aquaristics.com/ada-gallery.php.
I use window-tinting film on the back of some tanks, airbrushed clear acrylics on others.
