Have you incorporated fake decor in your reef? For those that don't what is your reason for not doing it? For those that do, please post pictures. Thanks!
 
I don't like the look of them. I prefer the more natural look. However, there was a post on here recently for a ship in the tank I liked. The person pulled that off really well.
 
i keep little pieces of pvc pipe in the tank for fish to hide not sure if that counts?
 
An LFS I used to frequent has a huge helicopter fuselage decoration in a display. It's about 2 1/2 foot long in a 4foot tank. Looks really nice being half behind the rock work and with coralline, tube worms etc all over it. Too bad none of their fish look like they'd survive the car trip home.
The public aquarium near me also has a snorkel and face mask in a display. That looks heaps cool too! I'm actually considering stealing that idea :)
 
I did have sponge bob squidword and a pineapple house that my kids got me. I rule them out after about a year. I like all real

Right now, I am using fake plants in my seahorse tank. It works great for the seahorses to hitch on. However, it is just until my macros take off.
