Welcome to Ausbonsai.
The rock arrangement looks good. Pines and junipers look good on rocks close to water. Is there somewhere in those rocks to plant a tree?

I agree with Shibui in relation to the type of trees that would be good for this arrangement, but I am concerned that there is no drainage in the pot. Can you confirm that there is sufficient drainage?
