Good morning everyone. My regal went crazy this morning and knocked down my aquascape. I had stacked it back up real quick and as you can see it does not look good and now my my flow is off and I have bare spots. I am up for changing the entire thing if need be. Any advice.l on how it should look and how to ensure I do not loose a fish.

I'm far from an expert, but I generally have 2 goals for aquascapes:

1. leave a couple inches of space between the rocks and glass (including the back glass)
2. build plenty of caves and overhangs for the fish

While doing this I try to stay conscious of the bottom support and use rocks that are flat and stable.

Here is what I did, let me know what you think and what changes should be made.

I like the open swimming space. Assuming there are caves for fish to feel comfortable and rock is off the wall to scrape and flush detritus, it should work well.
 
I like what you have going now. Plenty of room for swimming! Looks really nice!
