    My first tank, my first aquascape, thoughts?

    I mocked everything up and liked the look of it, the tank had water in the tank already so when I put the rocks in, and then the sand. It was Super cloudy, so I couldn't see the end result until the next day when the water cleared up. In the picture it's still a little cloudy, only because i...

    Help: Putting new rock structure into existing reef tank

    I built a large new rock structure to add into my tank. Is it ok to just rinse with RO and put it straight into the system or should I let soak? There are two additional large structures already in the tank. Is it alternatively safe to spray it down with hose water and let dry for a couple of days?

    How does my new aquascape look?

    Added a large rock on top as I could not remove my new anemones. Came together nicer than I thought it would and created the cave I’ve been looking for. Missing some on the left side to look more natural but let me know what y’all think and how I could make it better!!

    Aquascape, stacked or glued? Need suggestions.

    Building a mixed reef tank and I just picked up 110lbs of rock/coral and I’m not sure what road to take for the aquascape. Stack it or glue it. What would you do if you had this to work with? Any suggestions would be appreciated.

    To touch the back or not to touch the back - that is the question

    Hi team, I have an aio that has the hard plastic back. I’m thinking about doing some aquascaping and back in ye old days I had stacked rock and leaned some of it against the back of the tank. Do you think it’s better to avoid that if possible? My tank is a cube so it would be easy enough to avoid.
