Rebuilding my 100g island. Here's a shot from one side of the aquascaping. Used acrylic rods to get the desired look I wanted.

This is my planned scape for a red sea reefer 525xl using Real Reef Rock

That looks like a fun aquascape. You didn't get away with that without using epoxy or anything did you?

How many pounds of real reef rock is that?

It is not actually epoxied yet, it is just balancing as i was trying to get the perfect scape. I have labelled every piece and dismantled until my tank arrives.

How many pounds of real reef rock is that?

It is 65kg (143 lb)

Almost ready for reef restart because the tank is too full now. Still need to finish the base plate with pvc lime and live sand.

pvc foam board, dremel tool with sanding band piece like these one: https://www.dremel.com/en-us/Accessories/Pages/SubCategories.aspx?catid=2044. Last part was adding pvc glue and coral sand to cover up the white pvc foam board.

Hi everyone, this is an awesome thread. I'm pretty new to the hobby. I've only had my tank going for about a year and a half. I've unfortunately lost most of my corals due to inadequate lighting. But i've grown bored of my rock work and have been considering changing it up. I like what i have currently but i think i want a change, figuring with my lack of corals now would be a good time. I'd love some opinions on what i currently have and perhaps some suggestions on a change. Its a 65 gallon btw. Thanks!

Need some help I'm wating on delivery of my 90g sca pnp tank I already have my dry rock at home and trying some scape ideas but it's hard for me to imagine everything filled up with corals here are one of ideas any help from yall would be nice

I like the rock on the left. Don't care for the right side.

 

[SFish]

Maybe something more like this as a column. Could have it fat at the top and narrow at the base.

My first stab at a minimal, simple aquascape.
It'll be mostly SPS that will hopefully fill in nicely. Happy to hear any suggestions or thoughts?
