Any thoughts or ideas for my rock work. The dimensions are 60x24x24. New tank will be here either this week or next

Thanks!!

my opinion on 2 islands is to make them look differnt.
those are slightly different in height but bother taller on the left to a flat shelf and a support on the right.

it looks good dont get me wrong and better than anything I can come up with since im not very creative but 2 differnt "style" of islands would look even better IMO

I like a more 'natural' look in my tank and that looks a bit 'contrived' and 'artificial' to my eye. Don't get me wrong, it's well done and cool looking. I'd love to see it in 3 to 5 years all mature and with lots of coral and fish. But it's not a look I could live with for that long. But the much more important issue is, what do you think of it?

Thank you for the input. I have thought about the same thing with them being somewhat similar, but I'm having a hard time making it all work out. I am still a little while out so I may see what I can come up with. I am trying to leave one of the back corners open as I have a giant leather that I will use to occupy that space.

here is my rock work for my 4x2x2
i have about 5 mini islands with a bunch of craves and over unders. I would suggest for you to wait untill you get your tank in and then recreate your scape. trust me your be changing your mind alot.

i think take 2 is much better.
BUT at the end of the day...........whatever YOU like is really all that matters.

if that white sheet is your tank footprint which Im assuming it is make sure you have a couple inches between the rock and glass for easy cleaning just to make your life easier.

and again my personal opinion dont have it perfectly square with the tank angle it a bit just so it doesnt look "fake" even 2-3 inches will do it.

looks good tho I like it. just make sure YOU like it.
