Peninsula Build

[Cholla76]

I‘m building my Red Sea Peninsula 500 and right now I’m working on my aquascape. I decided to Caribsea Life rock. It has worked great in my 2 previous tanks. Looking for some input on there aquascape. Thanks in advance for the feedback.

Agree; video seems broken

In general since I have no idea what you created, if you plan to have fish that have sleeping needs, then provide adequate cave space, ideally that they can enter from more than one side and large enough for their adult size. Some fish are okay sharing, while others are not, so planning rock work formations appropriately. Beyond that, it can be personal preference

We broke up our rocks, reattached with reef mortar and where we were cantilevered into space, used acrylic rods/posts for support. We also used rods between rocks we wanted to keep 'removable' for cleaning. In these cases we used reef mortar to hold the rod in place, and while it setup we used plastic wrap to keep the rocks from bonding to each other.

What did you do for flow? Starting a 90 peninsula build and I don’t want wires at the end… curious what others have done. May have to run wave maker wire inside tank at very top to hide it, or put a canopy….ugh I really like pendent style lighting.
