After a couple months of research finally pulled the trigger on a RedSea Reefer 525 G2+. It isn't here just yet, but I've started to play around with some aquascaping/habitat ideas. Had posted on Reddit and was asked if I had a build thread here, which I did not. Figured I'd get one started to document the progress.
Got my table and working area all setup so I could get an idea of the space I had to work with. Went and picked up about 85 lbs of Caribsea Life Rock. One of their trees, a box of ledges, and then my LFS had several boxes of shapes that I could just pick through and grab what I wanted. Here are my first 3 attempts (ignore the socks on the table, lol). I think I may head back to grab a couple more arches and coves today and swap out some of the basic rock shapes.
