Hi Aquascapers!
I posted this in my build thread but figured I might get more suggestions / opinions here.
Here is my attempt at aquascaping my 160 gallon peninsula display tank. (Tank is 72" long x 24" wide x 23" tall)
Gonna leave it over the weekend and take a look at it next week to see if I still like it and hopefully get some opinions and suggestions.
Likes:
I like all the open space between the rocks so that it doesn't feel like a 100 pound rock I have sitting in one area... The arches create a lot of nice interesting spaces for me. I think they also maximize on the surfaces that I can place corals and also have fish swim through them... definitely lots of caves/homes for the inhabitants in the future.
Questionables:
The tank is about 23" tall and I think the top waterline will be about 22"ish.... The tallest point of the arch is at 19".... which leaves me with about 3" to the top... I'm going to assume that nothing will be growing up here... as it is also going to be burned by the lights?...
Also was trying to get more islands... but ended up with only 1 island.
Would love to hear everyones opinions / suggestions. Thank you.
