Thoughts on my scape

[Tice]

Hi all, this is what I’ve come up with for my scape. Any thoughts/tips/ideas? For reference it’s a 75gal tank with a 29 gal sump and roughly 60 lbs of rock.
All ideas, or constructive criticism welcome!

are you doing sand or substrate

Yes, I’m planning on a shallow sand bed. I still need to clean the tank good before adding sand and water.

The sand will cover some of the rock work. I did minimal rock in my 75 and as I’ve gained corals I’ve been adding rock and rock frag racks as I go. I like the two pillars you have started

You may want to consider drilling an overflow if possible it’s been one of the best things I did starting off and super easy.

I would make it asymmetrical. Perhaps move the rock in the middle to the pile on the left to make it bigger than the right one. Will look better. Keep the middle open.

I really like it!..love the minimalist look. I think it will look even better when you get some sand and lights in there.

Thanks! I definitely want to plenty of room for fish to swim! I have the sand and lights are in transit!

I was worried about going too high with the rocks. If I put a coral on top I want it to have plenty of room to grow before running out of water.
