Ugh...this thread is so annoying. Too much success. These set-ups are amazing.

Here's mine

Here's mine

I just started this tank two months ago. Looking to keep it clean and not clutter it up like in the past.

Thanks everyone for the great ideas!
I had high hopes to cut and drill rocks for an 'erector set' look. It ends up, even with all the tools, that cutting and drilling live rock is really hard to do. I guess I don't have the patience. I tried epoxy, super glue, hot glue, grinder, masonary bit, hammer and chisel. In the end I just stacked the rock. :worried:

I like how my first reef tank looks though! Its an RSM 34 gallon.

Very Nice.
What bulbs do you have on this tank and what is the LED supplementation?

 

[blackthunda77]

Blue reefbrite led strip and cheapo 250 watt 20k pulserite bulbs.

Awesome tank thunda. Great aquascaping. Really nice. Send some more pics when you get a chance.

 

[Leanan]

I love this thread, so many great tanks! Can't wait to start my own minimalist tank next year sometime.

 

[GOSKN5]

Mine is pretty minimal.. about 50 pounds maybe in a 75g...

I hope to qualify as a minimalist aquascaper:

first getting it set up. Changed a little since then, but nothing much

 

[cbashaw]

I'm setting up a 93 cube (30x30x24), and working on my scape. Does this look good by itself? I'm wondering if I should add another rock somewhere on the sandbed or just have this. I still need to reinforce it a little, but it is pretty stable as is.
