First attempt, roast me!

I like the last version, the only thing is we don't know if its tall or short based on the pictures.

I would suggest using the cardboard sized to the tank dimension foot print, and the water height that will be in the tank.
Most just go with the height of the glass box but this is not accurate, you need to build based on water height.

If you want a roasting then I say take a hanger and some marshmallows out to the fire pit.
Maybe some chocolate and a few graham crackers.

Im sorry, I didn't see this in time to cut out another piece of cardboard unfortunately. But I will most definitely get some pictures in tank as soon as I can get it in there and before I get everything completely glued/anchored and filled. But if it makes any difference to know I measured to the top of the scape from its base and then measured from the bottom of the tank to where the overflow will keep the water level and had about a 7 inch difference from the top of the scape to where the water level would be. But it may end up being slightly different in the end now. The one rock I had on the right side I was using as a base doesn't want to sit as stable on the harder glass in the tank as opposed to the cardboard on the carpet. I'm going to be making some calls tomorrow and try to find someone who has some Marco foundation rocks that can ship and are willing to. BRS currently only has the 4 to 6 inch small rocks in stock at the moment. The one on the left is a foundation rock that I got from a store about 2 hours away and it was the only one they had. I thought I might get lucky with the one on the right but I'm not willing to take the chance after setting it in the tank and trying to build off of it, especially since the rock itself is fairly smooth and has no real ridges for another rock to grab on to. I will feel much more at peace if I can source another foundation rock or two. In the meantime though, thank you for the help!
 
I think it's cool! I don't have much experience in scaping but I think it has plenty of opportunities for corals to thrive. :) Good luck!
