Hello everyone!

I'm having difficulty with deciding on an aquascape. Below are the two that I have tried out so far:

Single rock

Multiple rocks

I do plan on a mixed reef (soft, LPS, and SPS) so keep that in mind.

Thanks for your time and help!

I would definitely go with the 2nd one. Seems like you'll have more ledges to place corals, as well, as more caves for fish.

Number 2 for me as well, secondary to coral placement and I do not particularly like the boulder look.

Why not make a couple of towers out of smaller pieces of rock use acrylic rod and reef safe cement I used Nyos reef cement and fix sum platforms to the towers I used a angle grinder with a diamond disc to cut my rock in half then cemented into place.
Making towers gives plenty of space to put corals and room for the fish to swim
