aquascape

Hello everyone! I’ve been in the hobby for around only 6 months, I started with a 75 Gal with only 4 fish, but now have a 75 gal and 125 gal. I want a new long term setup for both of the tanks, I most certainly want coral in at least the 75 gal. I am considering clownfish only I’m the 75 gal...

Hey everyone ☺️ I‘m trying to build an aquascape here Ive watched some videos but I’m not sure if I’m doing it right I‘d love to hear some opinions. Is it too massive? The tank itself will be a room divider so both sides have to look appealing in the end. I tried to integrate plateaus for...

I have a ProStar 230 gallon tank I have been slowly putting together, still dry, and I have been debating since starting the project how I want my aquascape to look. The goal for my tank is a mix reef build, heavy on the LPS side since I like to see a lot of flow and motion in tanks. Like most...

Hi all! We are now a year into our reef tank, and we are wondering if we should change our aquascape- in order to give corals better placement for growth as well as to add more! We feel as if we may have limited our area due to rock placement. We would love any and all suggestions in regards...

Just curious if anyone has an issue with their clownfish moving around rocks, shells, and other decor in their tank. I have a gold x lightning maroon that moves everything around every day, and some of things she moves are impressively big. She used to also dog in the sand before I put her in a...

Hey All, For any Canadian people who have been having trouble getting their hands on Gluemasters Thin glue for their aquascapes, I tired about 6 different glues on test pieces and by far the BEST alternative I found is CECCORP's Extra Thin. Runs like water and sets almost instantly when using...

Hello fellow saltines, My tank has been up and running for a couple months now. I plan to add softies once the tank matures. I originally just had one rock in the tank and placed it to the right side of the tank. I left the other side empty until I had a better idea of my plans. The more I...

Hey all, This is going to be my first build and My peninsula 4820 from Waterbox arrived last week and have finally moved on to working on the scape. This is what I have so far and would love some feedback on the rocks. Keep in mind I plan on building up some height a little bit. Also when...

I spent an hour today picking out Live Rock to get my 2.0 tank started again. I’m so Excited!! Cycling starts tonight! Can I see everyone’s Aquascapes??

Hi all, This is my first reef tank and looking forward to getting it setup and starting things off. I am planning on making this a mixed reef system—starting with mostly LPS—and adding other corals, a few fish, and maybe an anemone, as it progresses. I've done a lot of research on...

Hi sorry for a totally newbie question but I purchased a full setup used that was meant to include live rock that had various corals attached. Sadly they broke the tank down a few days before delivering it to me so I am assuming all the corals died despite them saying they will “be fine in the...

Interested in hearing about any lessons your current/previous aquascapes have taught you, or what you would change if you could go back in time! I’ll start— My 40g is my second tank and first true aquascaping attempt (pile of live rock in first build). With this scape, I grossly...

This method of aquascaping has to be my all time fave way to scape a solid NSA dry rock scape. Hit me up if you have questions or need help with your scaping plans. Always happy to help. #reefstache #aquascaping #nsascape #reeftankscapes #howtoscapeafishtank #branchrock

ok so i made my new aquascape it’s 10-13 pounds of dry live rock and it looks like this in the old nuvo 10 and here’s what it looks like with the corals i like that i kept from my waterbox 20 but i did it with snapchat so it’s kinda bad but anyways i’ll take any opinions on the...

Hey all. Looking for all feedback. I still have to glue and fill in the seams with rubble. But lookin for feedback. 100 gallon reef. Ignore all the BS in the background.

Hello, I am new to reefing and being overwhelmed with the amount of info on which corals can sit next to which and what light and flow each need. Should have done a lot more thinking while I was building my scape. I would like to have a mixed reef with softies, LPS, and eventually SPS. Here...

i’m getting a 75 gallon custom made. i really like sps tanks but everyone says less sand or no sand because it’s easier to clean. but at the same time i’m considering jawfish which need sand and i really like more "biology" in the tank. the scape will also be quite minimalist. how can i...

I was messing with my aquascape and I was just wondering do soft corals, anemones, or any type of coral wedge themselves into the crevices of rocks to hold themselves in place resulting in side pressure causing the rocks to be dislodged or move apart?

So this is the 3rd time re aquascaping inside my tank. I can never get it to look good to me. I feel like giving up on my little friends :( This is so frustrating. I'm not going to give up as I know the effort is worth it. But what do you think? It's cloudy from trying to re aquascape for 3hrs...

Now I have just bought a marble/checkerboard wrasse about 3" long. I'm not sure if I have enough pods for him to munch on. Now, I have spionid worms in the sand that I think I've seen him peck at. Today is the 2nd or 3rd day I have him. I was wondering does the wrasse/.wrasses like to eat cerith...

A few days ago I just picked up my new IM 30G Long tank and have been thinking about the aquascape. Ever since I’ve seen the NSA video from BRStv I’ve been seriously considering doing this. I figured with the dimensions and modern look of this tank, the NSA scape might suit it really well. If...

Hi! This is a 20g IM nuvo fusion. Thoughts on this aquascape? The tank is just cycling now… so I feel like this is my last chance to adjust the rock. I still have a lot of extra rock to work with. Are there adequate spots for corals? Thanks!

I want to redo my aquascape but every time I situate it differently, I am just not happy with how it looks. Can anyone give me some advice or ideas? Thank you!

How can I improve on my aquascape. I feel as though it looks ok but I want it to be better...any ideas?

I’m a beginner in the saltwater community even, much less reef tanks. But what do you guys think of this aquascape with the rocks? Give me some honest feedback, thanks!
