[Fishtank603]

Getting back into the hobby after a break this will be my first AIO tank/build got a fluval flex 32 I have made a few modifications so far water will be going into tank next Saturday 12/4/21 Flooring installers coming next week AnyWho things I have done so far are bottom intake covers upgraded return pump SYNCRA 1.5 in tank media baskets tunzy Nano ATO stuff probably 25 pounds of dry rock still working on The aqua scape which is exciting and challenging I guess to create some negative space in a smaller tank LOL good times going to use 20 pounds of sand is the plan may have to adjust endgame will be a mixed Reef leaving towards dominant LPS

You can do some really cool shapes with the rock. Looks like you have plenty to work with. You can break them up and glue the back together anyway you want. There are some great threads on aquascapes using Marco rock and Gluemasters superglue.

I have broken the rock up there is it and still playing with a form before I try to glue it want to create some negative space swim Throughs and maybe a cave or two limited space my first reef was a 90 gallon so this is kind of a switch if you will think my wife was actually a little disappointed when I brought home the flex lol
