I watched BRS's NSA video a little while back and ordered some rocks and the insta glue cure stuff and mortar. I am waiting on the super glue to come back in stock, but everything else is here. The 15 gallon mini peninsula tank I am making the scape for just arrived today too. I may break down and just go raid all the dollar generals in the area. Can't wait to record that build process.


Is it the tank Waterbox came out with? If so i want to see some pictures after you set it up. I’ve been wanting to order the 25g one but can’t decide between the WB 20g cube or the WB mini peninsula 25g.

My new aquascape I built today! My reef has been going for a year and a half and was never happy with my few rocks I had. Ordered 10 lbs of STAX rock and built this after 3 hrs haha. Just in time for the lights to turn down and the corals to all be upset with me. Can’t wait until they no longer look so white. This is just half of my 20 gal peninsula :)

I would post some pics, but their are to many as I am in the process of scaping my upgrade. Hopefully it will give you some ideas. Just click on my 225 upgrade to see the pics.

Whatever you do, scape wise, I recommend taking plenty of photos a videos as it will show things to you that may not see otherwise and regret later. ;)

@Kola99 I love that scape! What did you use to hold the rocks together? I love that you thought about two smaller unconnected islands! Brilliant!

I've been avoiding editing my video of making my aquascape because it is so long. But here is a video that shows the final product. I think it turned out nicely.

So I will be upgrading from a 32g to a 75g fish tank with a sump as well.
I was wondering if everybody can post pictures of there 75g tank or around similar size of there aquascape..
Looking for ideas on how to set up the new tank..
Im soooo excited for the upgrade and would love to see everybodys set ups. :)

I like to make swim through bridges. I try and use large rocks to reduce the amount of cementing and toppling potential. Look on Craig’s, Facebook market and club forums for used live rock that you can clean up and reuse. I’ve gotten some huge rocks at super cheap prices that way over the years.

This is our seahorse tank that I re-scaped recently:

And this is our new 55g clownfish “harem” tank that I just finished scaping and fill with water tonight:

Next up for me...building an aquascape for our 220g tank. We unfortunately suffered heavy losses due to a tropical stormover the summer and had to break this tank down to get all the fish out. We’re hoping to get it back up and running ASAP!

This is my setup in my 10’ x 3‘ x 3‘ tank. Huge pieces of dried rock from Caribbean Sea. Bleach and Acid bath then secured with hydraulic cement. No live rock for me as got cirolanid isopods when I used live rock although the other live stuff on it was amazing.
