I need some help requesting this tank , I’m trying to making it look better with out moving the two rocks that are already there, I can add rocks and even connect , but moving is a no-go! Any tips or recommendations are appreciated I am going to put a picture to show what we have to work with...
Hey Reefers! I am reconstructing my aquascape & hoping for your opinion on what direction to head in. For context, this is a 13.5g nano. I intend to keep a mixed reef with a couple fish. Space for coral is the priority for me, but also aesthetics. Keep in mind, scape 1 was my completed...
Hello,
I'm setting up my first real reef aquarium but I'm having some trouble with the epoxy. I'm using AquaStik Stone Grey epoxy. I'm building my aquascape outside on the patio to try to keep the rock dust and superglue fumes out of the house. The other day when I was working on it the...
Hey all! New to reefing and just getting into corals! I have a new sonic the hedgehog galexea and I'm wondering if it's too close to my gsp. It's still on a frag plug so I'm definitely able to move it. It's on an island alone but I'm still thinking eventually it's going to sting the gsp...
Not sure if anyone has tried this, or knows the answer. I've posted questions on the products on BRS's website without response unfortunately.
Has anyone put non "reef rock" in a reef tank? Is it safe? Are there ones that are safe and ones that aren't?
I'm thinking about redoing the...
Hey Everyone!
Welcome to my 200-gallon reef tank build thread! I’m super excited to dive into this project and share all the ups and downs of setting up my saltwater aquarium. I’ll be posting about the gear, the setup process, and all the cool critters and corals I add along the way. If you’re...
Hi Reefers,
I am relatively new to the saltwater world, but have enjoyed watching videos and learning about aquascaping for a few years now. Some of my favorite videos were put out by the artist James Findley of The Green Machine in the UK.
In learning how to carry over these design elements...
Hi Guys
I’m currently setting up my D-D ReefPro 900 and attempting my first aquascape using the D-D Aquascape Natural Aquarium Rock.
I’ve used a cardboard cut out as the dimensions of the tank to lay out the rock.
Do you guys have any feedback or tips to what I’ve put together in the...
One of my favorite parts of reef keeping is building the scape. I like to use as much negative space as possible when I create reefs. Branching rock helps attain that look much easier. Creating an NSA (negative space aquascape) is easy using fast setting glue such as Glue Master’s cyanoacrylate...

Hi everyone. I’m new here so trying this all out.
First off, I have a Reefer 750 (est 2019) that’s been somewhat neglected. Not going to bore people with why but it involved having lots of infants in the house due to Covid). Now kids are in all day care and I have no money!
Anyway, I was an...
I recently purchased a second-hand 260g reef with a few fish, coral and live rock. During the move, the tank developed a leak. The tank is now resealed and curing, but it's been a long process and the fish and coral died within a few days after the move.
I spent a whole weekend scrubbing hair...
Hi everyone,
I am new to this forum but I’ve been a long time browser of this website. I am having issues re-scaping my tank, I can’t seem to find a style that I enjoy and gives all my corals/fish the attention they need.
My questions are: if I were to replace ALL of my rock with new dry rock...
I got a large amount of live rock over a year ago. Only some of it went into my tank cause I suck at aquascaping and I already had my tank running with fish and a small amount of live rock for over a year which makes it difficult to move stuff around. I ended up putting the rest into buckets and...
Hi everyone -
I'm one of those aquarists that loves both the freshwater planted and reef side. I'm also the admin over at ScapeCrunch, a forum for freshwater planted aquarium hobbyists.
One of our members just set up a beautiful macro algae saltwater tank using a Japanese stone aquascape style...
Finally got the aquascape done, or almost done. It's not how I envisioned it but it's what the rock I had allowed me to accomplish without breaking some apart.
I did get several nice caves, plenty of hiding spaces, and some swim throughs.
There's 200# of ARC base rock and 30# of Gulf rock...
Bought it last week and used maybe a quarter cup of the mortar mix this passed weekend. I don’t need any more of it. Asking $30 to recoup a little of the $55 kit.
I’m located in Rancho Santa Margarita, zip is 92688. So local pick up only.
Hey all. I about 8 months ago I broke down my 90 gallon reef due to aptasia running rampid and started up a small Aqueon frameless cube with homemade rock scaping. It is ok but I feel like I was missing something. I remembered I have been trying to sell my old 40 breeder tank with DIY stand but...
I am working on ideas for aquascaping my new 300 gallon FOWLR tank. I would like to have a zebra moray eel as part of my FOWLR tank and trying to figure out how I want to aquascape. I would like to use a PVC tunnel for the eel, but trying to figure out the right size. I can't find much...
Would love to see your minimalist/bonsai aquascapes!! Need some motivation to start aquascaping as mine crumbled to pieces during my tank move last week :disappointed-face:
RIP

Good morning, afternoon / evening fellow reefers,
I am Aquascaping my new Red Sea Reefer 425xl and i am playing around with a few ideas and thought id post a video to share my ideas.
The reef will be a mixed reef with wrasses, tangs, clowns etc, my logic is the tank needs to accomodate sps...
I went with AF Rock -- very heavy on plates and shelves. This is good for my shallow 5ft 100G tank.
Except for the two bases, All the other rocks are suspended (i.e. overhangs and the like).
Looking for honest, constructive, non-hurtful criticism, and opinions.
Is this supposedly minimalistic?
