Scape opinions

[Xclusive Reef]

I want your opinion on what looks best. I have 2 setups one with 2 island left and right. The other I add a small island for whatever i want to isolate from the rest like zoa garden or whatever..

This is your tank, so go with the scape which you like most. I like the top one just a little more, but both look good.

For sure.. I know what i am picking. just wanted to get opinions.. sometime looking from outside people see things i dont see, like too high, too much rock, too little rock etc..

I’m torn here because they both look nice. If I had to choose I would go for the second picture simply because maybe it adds a bit more depth or something. And more places to attach coral.

Do a build thread or post a link if you’ve already started as it’s looks like it’s going to be a nice system.

I have a build thread link on my signature.

I like the third island in the middle. I have one also and it is where I put my anemone. The only advice I have is to leave room between rock and glass for cleaning purposes.

yea I left like 5-6 inches all around. I can get me hard and clean all over.

Why not angle the rocks? Use some of the width of the tank. Also very the heights of the islands.

By the way what your asking is subjective. This may help:

I like the 3 islands but both are nice. And yes, maybe angle two outside islands inward a bit

I would try, for the second choice, bringing the small island to the front rather than the back to create more depth and see if you like that. I say that not knowing your livestock intentions of course. What @Reef-junky said about angling also would go along with that. Honestly, they both seem a little too symmetrical to me as is. Maybe try making the heights less exact. Good luck.
