First aquascape attempt for Waterbox 130.4

MTsquared · Jul 14, 2020

Hey everyone this is my first attempt at my aquascape. I tried to create a few islands with arches linking everything together. It’s roughly 60lbs of dry Marco rock. I also have 20-30lbs of live rock in my current system that I plan to move over once my tank is cycled (or should I put it in to help speed the cycle? Only issue is that some of the rock has zoas and other ricrodea and corals I would not be able to remove. Is that an issue or can I add to the tank for the cycle?).

Let me know your thoughts. Any and all feedback is greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance.

Here is the 2.0 version after doing some reading about scapes.

I like version 2.0 much better. I take it you applied 3rds rule(?). I like the new Valley / Island separation.

Yes read about the thirds rule and redid the scape. I like this much better and think this is the one I am going to go with. It will still allow me to add my other live rock in certain areas.
