Love it or Hate it? New 140 Gallon Aquascape from Texas!

[BigTex1836]

Tell me what you think of my aquascape on my new 140 gallon build!

I really like it, but it looks like you might be a little close on the sides. Will you be able to get a magnetic scraper in there?

 

[Ebslinger]

Have to agree with @Auquanut Like the look, concerned about the magnet.

Looks cool. But if you keep fish, do they have enough room to swim about? And I agree with rock being close to the glass. I like to leave a few inches between rock and glass. But it’s always hard to tell from pics. But overall, this will look cool when filled in with livestock.

I like how you have a mountain scape and then a plateau. The foreground just seems a bit busy with rock

 

[FragileReefer]

I actually really like this, it has some good lines.

If I were to make a change, I would like some more negative space in the middle. O would keep the mountain and the plateau but I would lose the three rocks in the middle. I'm sure you might get some corals on rocks or want a clam or sandbed corals. But that's just me.

This was my aquascape

Agree with @FragileReefer. Leave a bit more negative space in the middle. And maybe move the rocks from directly under the plateau and leave a bit more open space under there too.

However it doesn’t look bad now!! Just my two cents.

And welcome to R2R!! Good to see another Texan here.

I can just barely get in there

I call that part Shrimp Island, because they love to hang out on the underside
