New aquascape

[Kirkslittlereef]

Started working on the aquascape today, the structure on the left has a bunch of propping rocks while glue dries.

Looks good. Can we get a full view?

Looks good.

A better view will help more.

I’ll get a video after the glue dries enough to take the extra support rocks out

 

[Kirkslittlereef]

A little walk around, the cardboard is 3” smaller than the inner dimension of the tank anything hanging over is a support until glue dries enough to remove them because I forgot to buy accelerator when I got my glue

Thanks! It’s the ARK rock off from eBay it’s nice looking but took a month to get here.

Very nice. Looks like it’ll allow lots of flow thus eliminating detritus build up and plenty of room for coral growth!

Looks great. Lots of hiding/sleeping places for fish. Nice to see a non NSA for a change.

I learned my lesson on the first tank with the uncleanable rear rock wall

I’m having a more experienced reefer who is pretty good at scaping show me the ropes with my very first scape for exactly that reason. I don’t know what I’m doing and don’t want to create something I’ll regret a few months in

I just watched a bunch of videos on nsa scraping, used the same technique but changed what I didn’t like about most of their designs, once it’s completely how I want it it will be mortared together, just superglue holding everything now.

I’m going with the glue and sand method personally. I have an idea of what I want to do. It’s the execution of said idea that eludes me

Looks great, plus loved the background music in your video. (Sounded like LoG.)

In my 29g tank, my rock is just free balanced. I will probably change this in the future, but it’s solid right now, even with the powerhead pointed right on the stack and the snail mowing over them.
