Need help with your aquascape?

[RobZilla04]

I'm always down to tinker with my scape....

Those reef branches look like they don't belong there.

That clam could also move out of the path between the 2 rock structures.

S
What do you think of my scape? Is it good?

Sorry about the not so great pics.

The 2 main rocks have the same height. I would put a small rock on top of the left one to make it higher.

The 2 smaller rocks in front are mirroring each other.

Maybe you could create a bay with a wide opening in front? If the 2 arms of the bay look different it would be more interesting.

I agree with you on the adding hight to the left pile, i made a few illustrations to kinda figure out some stuff

With the green line i kinda like the rock tower idea, although with the blue line i kinda like where that rock is. Although with the red line, when you said a “bay” do you mean removing the red outline rock? I have kinda thought about doing that

As you can see, there is a bunch of coral rubble behind that rock. My idea with that was to grow a carpet there, matbe out of gsp or wall hammer.

With this rock its kinda supposed to be out in the substrate like that, i was thinking maybe rotating it 30 degrees to the right and moving it a little to the left.my plan is to add some coral rubble behind it and try to put a bta there

I meant something like this (top view)

Ill work on the scape next time i do a water change, then ill show you what i did

No I don't think so this is going to take forever lol

You're using 11 rocks to create a single structure and too make it even harder, they're very different.

I would try to create 2 structures and would not use the reef plates.

Better but no

ok all my shelf rock is out but no on this one too

Better but not sure, I worry about coral placement this will be mostly SPS

 

[Mark Gray]

hum still thinking

 

[Ardeus]

These 2 rocks are of the same type. You could try to create a small structure with them and a much larger structure with all the others.

 

[Mark Gray]

no not this one ether

Good eye those were live rock from the south Pacific 25 years ago

 

[Mark Gray]

Ok changed again lol, I don't mind this one, now these rocks are just sitting there I will cut some to kind of splice them together

 

[Ardeus]

Although your tank is narrow, you can increase the sense of depth with bays or more simply by slightly rotating the structures.

Try to make the left structure look as much as possible as a single rock.

Don't split the tank right at the middle.
