Aquatic landscape 2nd attempt

[Madangelo]

Hey guys.
As my first set up. I’ve spent quite of time reading and learning about the foundation of a good and healthy tank. And leading up to other things after the aquatic landscaping part.

take a look at the 1st and 2nd attempts.

1st - is live rock is against the back glass motif.
2nd- is stabled like a puzzle interlocking each other. As well as height for future soft corals or LPS’s.
Live stock to be considered
But leaning towards a zebra seahorse and a dwarf zebra lion fish.

Are the rocks sitting on the glass with the sand then added around them? Also when you have decided which aquascape don't forget top glue the pieces together.

I placed the sand first and kind of dug the main live rocks into the sand. And the other live rocks is placed in a jagged part of the rock.
I honestly wasn’t going to glue them as I am probably going to upgrade and reuse them in a different way/style.
Wyt?

Sand shifts and stuff burrow under rocks. It’s generally advised to do the rock work first directly on the glass then place the sand around the rock later.
