thoughts on nuvo 10 aquascape

[nanonøkk]

ok so i made my new aquascape it’s 10-13 pounds of dry live rock and it looks like this in the old nuvo 10

and here’s what it looks like with the corals i like that i kept from my waterbox 20 but i did it with snapchat so it’s kinda bad but anyways i’ll take any opinions on the aquascape please

I'd go taller personally

just make the pillar taller or the whole thing and it’s also not supposed to be too tall or big of a scape because the frogspawns and hammer and candy canes branches so it’s kinda built off of the corals i’m keeping

It's rather non-descript imo. All the crazy NSA scapes have really raised the bar a bit.

I dont' know bud, if you are happy with it thats all that matters!

But its just 1 big rock lol Not really a scape

+1 on taller. Also maybe look for a piece or two that will add some ledges.

I'd go taller and add some shelves or branches.

I'm cycling my Nuvo 10 now. Here's what it looks like.

ok and yeah i know that it’s actually just 10-13 pounds of rock rubble put together and i could raise up the top of the scape if i tore off this part which would make the rock look like it has more of an arch

yeah but then it would be too big for what i’m going for thx for the advice though

thx i’m planning on making it slightly taller not adding anymore ledges though because i’m not gonna be purchasing anymore lps just mushrooms that’s why the entire sand bed is open the scape

I couldn't tell this was "created". Looks like any giant dry rock. Looks like you went through the trouble of gluing rubles together to make one giant ruble vs a shape of some sort. Sorry for the harsh feedback but you asked...

Overhangs, arches, caves, ledges, platforms....those are the features that people strive for when making their own scape

ok so i decided to rip off part of the edge so it now looks like this and i’m also still making a bit taller not that much because i won’t have that many corals added to the tank since i’m filling the sand with mushrooms so dose anyone have any thoughts i’m not sure if i should rip it all the way off

 

[nanonøkk]

ok now here’s how it looks with the top raised up a bit more any opinions on it

Looks great, I’d just start that system and fill that rock with stuff.
