Scaling my 50g

virginreef · Apr 17, 2020

I have been messing with this all night... but I think I got the best fitting for my tank. Feedback is welcomed. What’s in the tank, I am considering... have a bunch of left over life rock from marine depot that I can exchange. Thoughts before I apply the e-Marco

Can you easily get a magnetic glass scraper between that rock at the front?

I’d shoot for an inch or so clearance at minimum.

It looks good to me, otherwise

So I repositioned my rocks to ensure that I have at least an inch of separation between the glass and the rock for cleaning. I’m going to befsn glueing tonight. I also thought about rock elevation. Had anyone tried elevating their aquascape and how they did it. Appreciate the feedback.

in my opinion, you don’t want too much elevation or you won’t have enough room for corals to grow up.

i think your scape looks better than mine, but very similar, as I have a U shape too.

you can always use the sand to raise/lower the rocks a little, if you’re planning to have sand on the bottom
