Lighting setup is temporary... DIY floating canopy is in the works.

I need to get a few more pieces of dry rock to get the look I'm trying for. But its coming along.

1st pix is shot of my current 120 reef ready tank that I am getting ready to break down. I had around a 50 POUNDS of Tonga Branch and 50lbs of Ultra Premium Fiji whcih I will not be using for the new build.
My new SCA 150 upgrade, I will be going with a more sps dominate type tank, so i GOT a company called Auqarocks to build me a one of a kind show pcs that came out unbelievable which will hold most of my Acros.
Then I bought two nice large piece's from Vidarock that are called waves. I am just waiting on my sump that i AM about to order from Elite Aquatics and then I will be starting my build thread.

Teach me this!!

Not the best but lots of room for my sps tank for the corals to spread their branches

And the other side. Both scapes built with pukani and haitian rock.

Just for content I'll share a few of the scapes/tanks I've done in the past. had to dig deep in my photo stash.
This is the beginning of my 90 gallons of frag. The name came from the 90 gallon tank I filled with frags. lol
I built two towers with a drill and 3/4" PVC to hold them together. They connected under the sand to hold them up.
The scape continued building a rock pile from the left tower sloping down behind the right tower. And the finished scape

This is amazing. Thanks for sharing!

coral placement is in my head.

This looks like its straight from Lord of the Rings!

Guys, here is what I was tinkering with yesterday for my new Reefer 250. Thoughts, comments, suggestions? I may add just two extra pieces overhanging to the front from each side for more plateau space for corals. Lmk please your reaction.

Nice looking scape. Dramatic looking. Right now the structure on the right and left are similar in size and shape- almost mirror one another. You may be able to make it more interesting be changing one or the other. Reduce the size of one of them maybe. The one you don’t touch will look that much more interesting. Great start!

Will probably raise the right hand structure

Thanks, Tod, appreciated. I agree, will make one shorter and will add a few flat plateau branches.
