Can I get some feedback on my aquascape?

[ccerone]

I am really big on Pukani rock. You don’t need nearly as much and it is much easier to aquascape.

I prefer the first. Maybe take the middle ones from the second and add them to a side?

I had to epoxy some of my rocks together to get them to sit the way I wanted them.

I used fiberglass dowel rods but have 2 fishes epoxy ordered. Should be here next week.

Wish I would have ordered some pukani. This is all Fiji dry rock. I think I'm going to order some live rock to add.

Maybe this will give you ideas.

I'd like to see some space between some rocks for crevices or caves--not just flat on top of one another so could build up one side a bit more. Mine is a "wall but there is lots of room for corals and lots of swim thrus. What type of fish? Open swimmers or rock dwellers (those liking to hang around the rockwork)

 

[Susan Edwards]

You can still add some pukani for interest. I mixed marco rock and pukani and some tonga shelf in my pic above. For my new build, I have a mix of marci, pukani, tonga shelf, and reef cleaners due to arrive next week.. Will add some from my current tanks as well to get it seasoned

Also check out stack rocks they look pretty awesome

I recently aquascape my tank.

Yours looks good, I think adhering rocks together could give you more options

 

[Daltrey]

So far my fish list is:

Clownfish (Already have them)
Dispar or Lyretail Anthias
Yellow or Purple Tang
Achilles Tang
Diamond or Watchman goby
Canary Blenny

+1 on adding some swim throughs and caves. I like the 2nd scape personally. But i would add some height to it. Here’s an FTS of my scape. Plenty of caves, hiding spots and 2 open areas in front. Also provides plenty of levels for corals with lower/medium/high requirements for placements

@nfrench2100 is that marcos? And a 75g?

I actually really like the second one with some,minor changes. Instead of connecting, keep the two separate but maybe overlap them. Try turning the right structure so it finishes near the front glass in the middle and turning the left structure so it finishes near the back wall in the middle. That will give a little "raceway" down the center and really will give it depth especially in a 2ft deep tank. Don't change it too much though it looks great already!

Here's a photo to help you see what I'm trying to describe except if the left structure were turned a little further to the middle. FYI this is NOT my tank or photo, I take no credit for it simply found it in a Google search

Here's a shot of my tank I went for the same effect hope this helps!

Here is my scape! I went with a central column but is got holes all through it!

 

[Susan Edwards]

very nice @nfrench2100

Fun getting ideas for my rocks that I start next week. This time I want some terraced slopes for corals. Hard to place a lot of corals on a "Wall" so I plan to do a lot of sloping and terracing

THis is the image I used when creating the left side of my scape - I loved the "valley" look - it is so hard to imagine the corals on it, which will really make it work!

It’s actually reef saver. I bought the system used from a local reefer. I’m pretty happy with it
