Here's the aquascaping on my new SPS tank.

Nice layout. Your tanks going to look amazing once the corals grow out.

Im pretty happy with how my aquascaping turned out on my 300dd. Most recent thing I have is a video. Tank is still pretty new though. I have more pics and stuff in my build thread.

Old pic, best I can do. All I would do different is not build the left side so tall.

Its hard to see anymore since all the corals have grown out but one of the things i did and still do different when i set this tank up was place most of the rock on its edge. There are almost no hrizontal rock ledges. I let the coral do that. The reef started as basicly a single story of rock ridges. As The coral grew on and in the rock i would stack them higher and higher and allow the corals to naturally fill in the holes. I looked at empty space more than the actual rock as i was setting it up. I wanted to stay away from the wall of rock . What I have now is a series of rock ridges with coral gowing into the gaps. It forms an open and i hope natural look. It may look flat but the pink pocilipora to the left is almost 3 feet from the front of the tank. The pocilipora coral also reaches all the way to the bottom of the tank. It is well over twelve inches high. I grew it from a quarter size frag I bought in 2004.

Dog boy dave - now that is fantastic! what a visionary.

In our latest build, we were going for some open space with more of a "bonsai tree" look to the live rock, and let the corals fill it in.

Here's a crappy shot of the aquascape just after install:

Still have a ways to go for these corals to grow in, but it is heading in the right direction.
