Aquascape done, thoughts, options?

[diablo243]

Well as the tank gets ever closer to having water in it, I decided to tackle the aquascape tonight. Simple enough in design and the picture doesn't really show the depth and curve of it. Thoughts, feedback, opinions? Anyone see anything with this design I'm going to regret? Good space front and back for cleaning and plenty of cave and swim throughs for critters.

Looks like mine!! Very nice.

 

[Maritimer]

Simple and nice! I have always liked the 2 island look.

Make sure you try and leave enough space to clean glass on the front and back. Looks good though.

 

[Vaiodude]

Looks good!!

I think it looks good gives plenty of swim space and the right side island gives room for coral to shoot up

I going against poplar opinion:) throw some stick rock in there and build a bridge :)

+1 on the stick rock bridge. Looks great though.

Not bad, but keep in mind what corals you'll want to keep and design around that, if you can. my LFS has nice shelf looking branches which all plays well together.

I'm also biased towards the bridge...

 

[SueAndHerZoo]

Me, too on the bridge! I always start my aquascaping projects with two islands and then always end up going in and adding a connecting bridge. Adds another "swim through" for the fish and a great spot to place corals. :)

Yeah I wouldn't rule out a bridge but started with the pieces I had and nothing I had lent itself to being a bridge. Thanks for the feedback all getting closer and excited!

Looks awesome! How many gallons!?

[diablo243]

And thank you [emoji3]

 

[eliramos]

Just like mine,
I'm actually going for a similar look!
When are you putting water in?

 

[diablo243]

Making water now, hoping to be filling the tank this weekend!

 

[Maritimer]

I've heard that sometimes a fish will claim an entire rock formation as its territory - but allow other fish of the same or similar species to inhabit a separate "island" nearby - and that a bridge between the two means . . . there can be only one.

FWIW.

i like the islands. If I had a long tank i would do the same.
