Minimalist Aquascaping

really beautiful tanks i love te minimalist look i went the opposite direction when i started and completly cover the back making as many ledges and caves for the most placement but im about ready to change it up and go minimalist prob is i have a 65 so its a tall tank :/
 
Well I made the same mistake when I first filled my 125, too much rock. I did it again when i downsized to this solana. This tread inspired me to go from this

Im not sure if I like it 100% I may make a few changes but overall happy with the reduced rock work.

Vast improvement and looks cool after the rescape. Nice :)
 
There are so many great tanks on here! Tons of inspiration! I have the hardest time with it though, ugh. I can build something that looks nice outside of the tank, but then when I put it in, it looks nowhere near what I had in mind. Here's my last attempt that for sure has to be changed. I had twice the rock in there and wanted to take a bunch out. It's not easy to make it look good...

Left viewing angle. Had to put corals back in so just dropped them on the sand until I get done or blow it up.

Hi Andre,
Looking beautiful.
I really like the wave on the surface. You have tuned that in perfectly. I can understand that's a difficult thing to do but uv nailed it.
 
I believe that the wave on the surface is created by X-Aqua's X-Inout return divice.
I don't even see the MP10 anywhere in the pictures.
