Wanting to see everyone’s Maricultured aquascapes. Planning on using TBS so more interested in those scapes but happy to see any that have used ocean harvested live rock. Definitely know that the shapes and rock is way different and more difficult to scape with than others like Marco rock is...
New to the saltwater part of aquarium keeping, thoughts on this aquascape? Was asking for lots of placement spots for anemone and zoas...any opinions or suggestions highly appreciated!
Literally my first ever thread, so here goes.
On a reeftherapy podcast from reefbuilders some time back, the late Jake Adams mentioned something about aquascaping rocks being overpriced af, and that you can literally use cinder blocks instead. Is this a thing? I’m planning a 700gal and cement...

Hello fellow humans i have just setup my very first saltwater tank, and i am worried i may have put in too much rock. I like the way my hardscape looks but i would like to keep a pair of clownfish and some corals later down the line. So i am wondering if my tank has enough open space as it is...

I am planning on rescaping my 1 year old set up.I will be breaking the rocks already in the tank, so should I be using thin or thick glue when scaping? If thick, what export would you guys recommend or would you recommend not using any epoxy at all

Hello everyone. I have always struggled coming up with a scape for this tank. It was bought for me as a gift so I’m working with what I got!
The dimensions are unlike any other tank I’ve had before and I struggle to find any examples for similar scape needs
The exact dimensions are 48 inches...
I’ve just bought a watchman goby and a pistol shrimp. They’re the only 2 creatures in there aside from a few corals and a hermit crab. They’ve dug a pretty extensive network of caves all under the rocks. I now kind want to move them rocks or add another rock, will they be okay? Should I go about...

Hi all,
Just after some open and honest feedback on aquascaping a 4 foot Cade 1200.
This is our first time aquascaping so open to any changes you would make.
We are aiming for a mixed reef tank with some negative space.
So far what you can see in the pics is 20lb Caribsea shapes and 40lb of...

Played around with some D-D Dry Rock and some Stax Rock (from Two Little Fishies)
I also used some acrylic rods for my arch structure with a mixture of watery glue and sand alongside Aquaforest Stonefix to put it all together.
