[Why-Me]

I love your Blenny!

Thanks, we do too, such a utilitarian fish. Still hasn't eaten algae pellets, just mowing the grass daily still.

Looks amazing

Thanks.

Oh yeah there's a local reefer scraping his coraline weekly, he's gonna hook me up with some at the frag swap!!
I was gonna buy bottle of the coraline in a bottle but not anymore!

That duncan looks great.

Thanks, I rotated it during WC so I could see it better, I like it.
I just target fed for the first time a week or two ago, blew my mind watching the duncans and frogspawn curl up feeder tentacles and eat.

I swear these things are aliens man!!

Maybe mammals are the true aliens of this world. Lots more coral fossils than mammal fossils. ;Smug

Looking good! I've gone back and forth on a potential source of coraline. The plates, from IPSF, look interesting. Sounds like you've hit on the ideal way to do it.

Wow tank is looking good. Everything is looking clean and well thought out

I've been pouring over the scape... I have to say it's got so much potential with growout. So many people overthink the way it looks fowlr... not the actual way it will look covered in coral... and man, this thing is gonna be gorgeous when it fills in. Super original. Love the long cave overhang too. The swail top left. It's just pretty. Nice job.

 

[Why-Me]

Thanks guys, I had to re-think the scape last minute because I made it to fit a 24 x 24 x 20 cube and it barely fit width wise so I laid most of the tall pieces lengthwise on their side and kept that overhang/bridge piece in the center.
I'm really starting to like it, at first i was critical of it because I only had 10-20 minutes to place everything.
The E Marco cement is great, it will be hidden once there's some coraline growing.

This is what the scape was built to look like originally.

This rock design is very cool I like the two tunnels.

That's all laid on it's side now in the 40 breeder, which I will admit looks even better laid over than that picture of everything standing up...It would've been a nightmare in my 50 cube it was supposed to go in, top heavy and could've possibly even fell over in the tank.
Now there's so much more room for fish swimming, coral growth and flow.
