looks good, but one thing....be careful of your substrate directly touckhing any water...even a little. It will soak up so much that you will practically have a bog. Some plants won't grow in substrate that wet.

Looks good so far, but I would not have any frogs in there yet. You should take them out until you can have some plant cover in there, and let it grow a bit. Also not a good idea to work on the tank with the frogs in there just for chance of something happening.

You could also cut the cork in the corner to stuff the power cord in the back.
