Love it, thank you for sharing. I'm starting my next build soon and this will be step one.
Great write up! Thanks for sharing! 1smile1
Awesome write up! Thanks for sharing.
Thank you very much; this is the first theoretical guide to aquascaping I have come across and is much appreciated. Youtube videos of 'get rock, place rock in tank' can only carry one so far
Small comment/question for you. Most suggestions for terrestrial flower gardens and FW planted tanks say to 'group' like colors and textures. It seems that kind of guideline would conflict with 'let no two colors touch', and to me too much chaos would ruin the flow. Are these two rules of thumb working on different perspectives; like individuals grouped together by color, then a group of one color next to a group of a contrasting color, or are these two opposing ideas?
Thanks
I am stunned and this has made me think about my new 125gl tank build after the holidays... Thank you
No problem. Landscaping, You must have a good grasp on layout and flow then. any suggestions to help others can be added.This is a awesome thread, want to do this for a long time but (there's always a but) working as a landscape contrator didn't never bother to do so.
Thanks for doing this.
Btw, this need to be made as a sticky thread, will help tons of ppl from now on.
Or made it into a book "101 the rockscape a reef-tank"
You're welcome!awesome write up thanks for the great info
great thread, i will be looking at aquascapping a 125 or larger when we move into our new house. I have 3 tanks worht of rocks and we are going to just have one. So rocks from my 55 75 sumps and nano all going into one design, i will have alot to work with. but i alway get worried when i leave it out of water to play with design that i will kill it off
Another easy way to assist with placement is to get out the measuring tape and grid out the rule of thirds on the glass with blue painters tape. Scape, step back and look, modify, step back... This really helps with visualizing the grid and is easily removed (no residue with painters tape) once done.
This is a great write up. I have been struggling with figuring out how to Aqua scape my new tank. I'm open to ideas if your willing help me out. It's a very unique tank. The dimensions are 4'long x38"tall x12" front to back. Here are a couple pics of the tank.
This is the tank empty. I was going to use the pvc and pond foam to make rock pillars as well as do a false wall on the back. Do you have any advice for me and my difficult tank lol
I was messing around on my phone and came up with this
Thanks again,
Ricky,
Great write up!
