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 from SaltyBottom. Although I chose airport pickup they couldn't get it to Newark airport the same day and it spent the night in Atlanta. I probably should have taken the drive to Philadelphia airport for same day.

It looks OK to me. Aquascape is just so much in the eye of the beholder.

Yeah it looks ok and has some nice swim throughs. Seems a bit low. What are plans for scape? Any corals? What type? Or just fish only

Personally I would remove the rock I marked so it is two seperate islands. I think also if you could make one of the islands considerably taller it would be more visually appealing. Don't be afraid to break pieces to get them to fit better. You could also use some adhesive to glue pieces together. Aquascape is difficult for me and never seems to turn out quite like I plan. But it's easier to try and get it the way you want it before adding livestock.
